Indeed, multiple categories would be nice :)

I think the best way is to get the nightly CVS snapshot from [1]. It's a=20
tarball, so you don't need CVS knowledge (which is quite similar to SVN wit=
h=20
the basic commands like checkout, update, diff being basically the same).
Add your changes, then run diff -u in your modified copy against the origin=
al=20
tarball and send the patch to the list. I hope Micha=C5=82 is still around,=
 his=20
last mail here is from October.

Btw, Micha=C5=82, how about importing KnowIt into KDE SVN (playground or=20
extragear)? I would take care of that if you want me to.
