Aaron Seigo told me we could just clone the xdg-specs repository and merge the 
changes back once we're done. I created a clone here:
http://gitorious.org/~lemma/xdg-specs/secrets-xdg-specs

I'm currently still hard at work, but if you want to join in, just tell me 
your gitorious account and I'll add you on the repository.

Seems to work fairly well. I converted to Telepathy introspection format and 
added an xsl that converts it back to the previous format suitable for EggDBus 
binding generation. Docbook generation is next on my list.
