Interesting. Thanks for looking this up.

You can always send patches to gnucash-devel (maybe CC to me). 

If we are talking about occasional contributions like during the past years, I 
think those patches should be applied from e-mail fast enough. If you feel 
like you might have some more time to spend on gnucash in the near future, we 
are also quite open to give you SVN write access. Also if your patches are 
waiting too long to be applied, feel free to notify us repeatedly about those 
so that we might instead give you direct write access rather quickly. But for 
now I think e-mail would be sufficient. (I'm not the SVN server admin, so I 
can't say anything more specific than this :-)

Regards,

Christian
