Great.

I understand that. Though the CVS code is generally very stable.

We are currently preparing for entering the beta stage of Horde 3 and most
of the modules. Of course I can't give any timeframe when we finally
release the new majors, but "next couple of months" sounds good. ;-)

You should start by sending patches to the current CVS. After a while you
can get a CVS account so that you can work directly on the CVS
repositories.

You need to subscribe to the lists. See http://horde.org/mail/ for details.
