I propose 2 alternatives: 1. Give me the URK to checkout the 4.3 branch and, when there's a change, simply notify me by mail (or notify here). I'll work then with svn diff to patch. 2. I go on trunk, and you apply changes there in 4.3 release. But I'm not sure it's possible given the dev process of vbox. Hence: I propose the 1st alternative.
