Brian,

It's pretty easy to do and figure out, and there is _some_ documentation 
(that is written well) to help you (let me know if you need links). I 
suggest you get the svn and build a current VM to get your feet wet. 
Once you build and it really does work, you'll pretty much understand 
the workflow. Then, you could split off a branch for your own work.
