That is naive. It is likely the scripts won't work and I'll have
to make changes, but won't be able to merge them back so they're
not lost. Patching only works for a while .. often not long at all.
Eventually my changes will not merge with yours, and there
will be a CVS conflict.

So what is your point? I don't require your encouragement
or permission to work on my own code. I just think it is sad
to duplicate effort by forking projects.
