Hi Westley,

As long as you are committed to maintaining it, I don't see a problem  
with merging it into the main tree.  I haven't looked at the code, but  
it will need the follow the normal coding standards, have some  
testcases, etc before it goes in.  It does not need to be 100%  
complete though.

Many people are on vacation right now, but the first step is to post  
your patch and get the code reviewed.
