Yes!  My opinion exactly.  I'm doing pretty close to the same thing.

I'm going to be off work for the next 13 weeks (hooray!) on parental
leave.  In that time I plan to get a bunch of this stuff cleaned up and
submitted to mainline.  If you send me your patches then I'll get them
included in my tree.  If it's too big to email then I'll setup a
location that you can scp it to.

That way we can both get credit
