My opinion was within the scope of this thread.

Here, I don't have enough information to form an opinion. At least,
not enough to consider yet your fork over the official SVN trunk.
My current impression is that lots of guys still work on the SVN trunk
and that your fork benefits from their work, while I am not sure of
the converse. As you know, I am quite new here.

If my patches could be committed to the SVN repository, I would appreciate.

Thanks,

Laurent
