Hallo Jython users and developers,

last month I wrote on jython-dev:

Till today nobody responded and I'm asking myself if nobody wants or 
needs readline completion in Jython and if there are PSF members that 
might want to help me update the FAQ.

In addition, I really would like to contribute to Jython to make this 
issue better in later releases, but I would need someone to take me by 
the hand (which branch to check out, how to commit changes, how to 
test).
