Two is always faster than one ;-)

If you do an 'svn commit' Subversion will give you a revision number  
(say r23456). Just add that to the bugfix in Bugzilla ;-)

After you applied a patch to the trunk checkout, the usual procedure is:
1) bump the subminor version in the Version file of all affected  
directories
2) add a description of the change to the ChangeLog file of the  
associated
    directories, including the subminor you just bumped (should be  
obvious from
    looking at the ChangeLog files).
3) commit ;-) Maybe including the bug-id and a short text in the  
commit message
    for reference.

Well, thats about it!

I'll try to find the time to create the account for you this week. Do  
you already have a login at developer.opengroupware.org?

Greets,
   Helge
