xml-rpc

Hi all,

I had asked a question about the missing XML-RPC custom groups support a while ago. Just now I've installed a local DW clone for testing, and hacked ljprotocol.pl to support a new method called "gettrustgroups" - it looks exactly like "getfriendgroups" but returns trust groups. My LJ-client ([community profile] qtxpost - it's fully functional now, at least for posting/editing) calls this method in addition to "login", if the server is described in config as a "dreamwidth" code branch, to replace the empty groups list returned on login.

So far it seems to be working :) I wonder if you would accept a patch for it, or you've been planning to do it in a different way and it's anyway too cheeky for a newcomer to poke around important code? Also, is it possible to join DW development team, even if I can't guarantee how much time I would be able to dedicate to it? (I work a full-time job as a programmer/sysadmin.)
