I think this is actually the second step.

The first step is figuring out how to foster configuration communities
from core Emacs. How to find out which configurations are there and how
they organize to decide

This looks like a start, but already deeper in than I’d think. About the
first part (#1, not #2): I think the first command to learn with Emacs
is CTRL-g. You’re stuck in something and want to Get Back to whatever
you did before. Regardless of the strange things happening right now,
stop them.

If something worries you, just hit C-g repeatedly. Even if that didn’t
change the current situation, it gave you time to think, because it
didn’t do anything ☺

Best wishes,
Arne
