Excellent.

If you want your own public Git repository for that, it's nearly there:  
you can clone the project through Gitorious's web interface, check out  
 from your branch ("git clone"), edit, commit there, and when done, ask me  
to merge, either as a series of commits, or squashed to one single commit.

Given all of the circumstances, I'd say MSS GmbH also deserves mention in  
the changelogs; I'd propose that you edit a NEWS file entry accordingly  
and propose a wording you feel adequate and that is in line with your  
regular PR policies.
