Works for me too :)

Nice, thanks, I'll go request you be added as admin, so I can delegate
the right patches to you automatically.

Indeed, no problem at all.

I'd still somewhat prefer to have the initial commit as a pull request,
but if you really don't have a public git tree now you can also send a
big single commit with all the right things to me in private, and then
I'll put it somewhere and send it to the list. We can figure this out
either way, no big deal.
