I could, and I would (I was looking for an excuse for a long time), but I have no time before
middle next week. I can put it into my TODO items for then.
I just relised, I was only registered to repo.or.cz - but I will register as described at
http://orgmode.org/worg/worg-git.html
If it should be up earlier, please feel free to do it.
Cheers,
Rainer
