Re: How to submit a patch?

I've been toying with the idea of doing a code fork -
something like an xmms-dev branch and go back through
the xmms bugzilla and add the contributed patches that
have been left out. If the maintainership of the main
xmms branch comes back to life, then we could act as a
testing branch for features before they get accepted
in the mainline/stable xmms branch and do merges
periodically.

It's hard to tell if the current CVS guy is too busy,
or lost interest or both.

Anyone interested in helping with such an enterprise?
