That's great. Be sure to thank your employer on my behalf (and probably
all of our behalves) for being so supportive. Many places let their
employees have pet projects, because it often produces real value for
the company that it would otherwise miss out through being too
narrow-minded, but I've never worked anywhere that encouraged people to
contribute to open-source projects they use.

In fact, going the other way, I've worked in one place where they
maintained a private fork of SQLite rather than allow programmers to
submit changes upstream. Needless to say, this piece of stupidity was
quite representative of management attitudes and the codebase as a whole.
