Rather than that, I'd suggest making a clone of the Vim repository on
google code in Mercurial, and making/maintaining your changes there.
You can keep the close on google code associated with the Vim
repository, right from code.google.com/p/vim. Or, you could make a new
project on google code or bitbucket which is actually a clone but not
obviously associated.

Then collaborative development can occur easier as well.
