Yes, there is quite a lot of stuff in RQG developed by Philip or 
somebody else which was not documented on Forge last time I checked. 
I've made a few more modifications too, in addition to those described 
in the KB (only documented those which were more or less final).
So if we have our version of documentation, it would be good to have 
access so I could keep adding to it when I encounter undocumented 
chunks; or I could send you my findings and you would publish them, 
whichever you prefer.

But the problem with my modifications is that they currently live in my 
work tree, I'm still not sure what is the right way to handle it. I see 
that Oracle guys do merges into the main RQG tree (not Philip), so I 
guess they kind of "own" it, and I don't know whether I should merge my 
changes, especially MariaDB-specific parts, into the same tree, or 
request them to decide whether they want them, or to keep a separate 
MariaDB tree. So far I've just been merging the main tree into mine, to 
avoid diversion, but not the other way round.

Any opinions would be appreciated.
