Unfortunately, I need to say that my time for such things is
limited. I am doing my best, but it's hard to make more specific
predictions. All I can say is that right now my schedule is filled
yet more with other stuff.

In principle, I am open here. I have used CVS for bbdb quite simply
because I know how I can do the few things that I want/need to do. I
haven't found the time to sit down and figure out how git and bzr
are working, though this is on my todo list, too.

Which web page? The one on savannah? I started with a rather
rudimentary web page. As things progress, it might be good to update
it, too. (I cannot do anything about the old sourceforge page.)
