I suggest giving Shane cvs access. He has been involved with gstreamer coding before and has proven to be a great developer (as well as documentation writer :).

Cheers,
Silvia.

Patches are always welcome. Documentation patches are _particularly_
welcome - we know that our documentation is often insufficient, so
help here is great. Thanks!

Generally, unified diffs are the preferred way to provide patches.

It's probably best to send what you have now, then updates when you've
got substantial improvements - no need to make people wait even longer
for this!
