   I'm curious as to what GNU (and Emacs developers) feel about
   a 14 year old (such as my self) being able to contribute to
   the Emacs project.

For any GNU project, i think it helps to understand the GNU GPL
and its evolution.  When the technical draw ebbs, will you be
satisfied w/ what you leave future beachcombers?  How to even
measure that, now or hence?  I'm curious why you chose Emacs.
