The one-liners are getting in.  I disposed of ~40 of them a few weeks ago.

Tokyo (or at least I was, now I'm in NH recovering from let lag).

The bug tracker is the UML mailing lists.  I stick bug reports and patches in 
a todo folder and delete them from there when I fix (or merge) them.  I pay
almost no attention to the SF patch and bug report thingies.  So if you want
your bug to get attention, send it to one of the lists.

It would be useful for someone to start a new UML tree, collect patches, merge 
them in, get testing, and forward them on to me.  But so far, pretty much no
one is in the code but me, so you're limited by the time that I can put into
it.
