Yes, I've never used the messaging system on the OSM site (I prefer mailing 
lists).
I'll give it a try.

The new roads he added seemed legitimate, so I didn't want to remove all of 
it.
And I've never used those revert scripts, so I am not very comfortable using 
them as I might make a bigger mess if I do something wrong.

I have the impression that you've corrected it already now. But please contact 
Neo and ask him about it, so he can watch out it doesn't happen again. You can 
also immediately ask him to upload his gps tracks.

There's a script available here that should be able to revert changesets: 
http://trac.openstreetmap.org/browser/applications/utils/revert

Of course, it would also delete all the new roads in that changeset, but in 
case we get some vandalism or some serious mistake by a mapper which is too 
big to fix manually, it's good to have something.
