Sounds good. Will do. I play FreeCiv about once a week with a friend, so 
I'll get him to help test as well.
Any particular way I should check out patches? I mean, just use the CVS 
frequently, or download and apply individual patches to a stable release?
Also, any documentation on the chat functions of FreeCiv? I'm interested 
in that area since I'm sure I can help out with my knowledge of Jabber. 
I'll make a post explaining Jabber and how it improves upon the current 
method (or is weaker than, also, for that matter). I can't find any docs 
on the website about that, though.
