Just to clarify two things: it is on github to make it easier to submit patches upstream, but I don't see that happen soon for the fribidi changes.
And if there is a way to do it, I should very clearly write down that nobody should fork any of my code on github, since I will _not_ do merges, I will do rebase and thus non-fast-forwardable changes, if someone were to base work on any of my "forks" they would have a lot of fun...
