Hiya,

I've taken quite a liking to Knowit, but I noticed one particular
lacking feature that didn't seem to be in the TODO, that I keep
wishing was there.  It's the ability to have a single note appear in
more than one place - not duplicating, but "mirroring" notes.  This
would be a great way to allow flexibility in idea hierarchies that
have notes which, conceivably, should inherit their classification
from more than one parent note.

Anyway, this isn't a feature request as much as it is a "get me
started" request.  I've actually never really contributed to an open
source project before (though I keep meaning to), but I'd be
interested in hacking out this feature myself.  I don't know how to
use CVS (though I have a lot of experience with SVN).  Where do I
start?  I downloaded the source via tarball; which files would this
kind of change affect?  How do I submit a patch?

Thanks.  Awesome app.

Max
