That would be great, thanks :-)

Sure, im not the only developer though, and im certainly not the the
most talented...

Erm, developments are done on the trunk/eXist-1.0 branch, you need to be
a developer to commit back to this project. If you would like to become
a developer it would probably be good to get some experience with eXist
and then come and visit the other developers on #existdb on
irc.freenode.net most of them hang out in there including myself
(_delirium). If appropriate im sure you could be given an account for
committing.

If you are not a developer you are of course still welcomed to commit
patches or updates to either the mailing list of one of the developers.

Erm, not really, if you are up and running with Eclipse and eXist SVN
thats great :-) It sounds like you already know your way around Eclipse
and Java.
