You're welcome, I'm happy if I can contribute something to such a cool
project :-)

I've bundled up the activity and library and put them on my web server, in
case anyone wants to test them:

	http://www.pocketworkstation.org/xo/

The activity is a normal .xo bundle. For the shared library, extract it
from the '/' directory:

	tar xvzf libevince-*.tar.gz

Yes, I'd like help who to contact and how best to submit changes for the
upstream code. 

If I understand it right, the evince library currently used is
temporarily forked, and I'm not sure which parts of it are ready to be
upstreamed. I can separate out the scrolling-backwards-in-noncontinuous-mode
fix which I've reproduced in the desktop evince, so that could be submitted
separately to the original evince project.
