The word from Eric is that you should work against the trunk but also  
provide 1_8 compatible diffs unless the port to 1_8 is trivial.  In  
which case one of the committers can do it by hand.  Not sure how  
that applies to the matzruby branch.  That could just be his testbed,  
in which case it probably shouldn't have much effort spent on  
documentation.
