Understood. I think it's fine if we merge that work into the trunk 
though (after some discussion).

Cool, I think that would be helpful.

If you have problems, this may be a valuable reference:

http://www.zope.org/DevHome/Subversion/ImpatientPeoplesGuideToRequestingCommitPrivileges

(though it seems to be down at this moment)

If you need help to talk to Jim Fulton about any problems, drop me an email.

A wiki area would be easily arranged somewhere in 
http://wiki.zope.org/grok, or even it's own new wiki on wiki.zope.org if 
that is preferred.

For an issue tracker, launchpad.net is what we've been using for Grok 
itself. I suggest we go with that.
