Would large CGI patches be considered?

[hemebond]

Hi Andreas,

I checked out from your Git repo (first time I've used Git) and
rewrote the output for all the CGIs, and much of the structure of the
web interface. A couple of days later Ethan I got heaps of emails
about commits from Ethan. I've been trying to update my Git tree with
these changes but I don't seem to be getting them. Has your repo been
updated?
