I sure didn't want to sound like I'm complaining, as I have lots of
respect for you (and "xovo") doing the merging and am really grateful
for it.  It just wasn't clear to me at what stage the code on CVS is. 

I also wonder, how you approach the merging technically, so that
others (like me) can help out with this. I could of course compare
what is in the CVS with MSP-Pd file by file, but how do I find out,
which parts are just new changes in the MSP verison, and what is a
feature added by some of the other developers like Thomas, Tim or you?

Is there a list of those patches somewhere? 

Ciao
