As long as the patches maintain compatibility and are "clean" patches
(meaning they fix one defined problem each), yes, I am interested.

But be aware that fixing some of the major problems Include has right
now won't be doable with some small patch, but needed a very large
refactoring (this has been done in summer of code 2008 by Bastian Blank,
see http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.8-dom-bblank/). This completely changes
how the parser calls the formatter (then being just "converters" see
MoinMoin.converter2).
