Hi,
first of all, thanks for your work! It would be great if you could

I've updated the release notes page now, but I haven't done anything to the
4x documentation yet. Should I do that right away, or wait until the 4.x
release cycle is a bit further along?

I had a battle with this this morning, but didn't have much success. In
the end I followed this how-to:
http://jasonrudolph.com/blog/2009/02/25/git-tip-how-to-merge-specific-files-from-another-branch/
And brought only the relevant files in from my local branch to an
up-to-date-with-DSpace-HEAD branch, which I called swordv2contrib:
https://github.com/nye-duo/DSpace/tree/swordv2contrib
I've then issued a pull request on the DSpace repo:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/229
Note that this code depends on a newer version of the Java Server Library,
which we will also need to push into the maven central repo:
https://github.com/swordapp/JavaServer2.0
Cheers,
Richard
