With all due respect , I would have thought posting issues in the bug
database against the project module and then, when that didn't work,
posting to the devel mailing list here would be sufficient to at least
attract someone's attention.

What with all the hoops I need to jump through just to get a couple of
minor patches submitted to the project module, I'm beginning to feel
that the effort outweighs the benefits. I will endeavour to contact
the module maintainers, but if anyone else get's the time to review
the patches or, failing that, review my CVS access submission, I would
be most grateful.

Kind regards...
