Hi Peter,

Thanks for this. Your help is warmly welcome. We do indeed need to
revive patching GP. Even though the discussion isn't quite dead, we've
mostly moved it to http://blog.glotpress.org

Bug fixing is obviously crucial, but the same can be said for testing
patches, which has been severely overseen. Would you care to visit
http://blog.glotpress.org/ and debate it there?

Thanks
Zé
