Changes/improvements are always welcome :)
You can start downloading code from svn and use it for developing/testing.
After that if you don't have svn access you can post the patch here, or open 
a bug on bugzilla and upload the patch there - well send us a warning anyway ;)
In such a way we can test and commit your work.

Regards,
