I've been reading this list now for a few months, but I haven't dared to post anything. But now I want to start giving back to the Emacs community and I hope I can contribute at least something of value. Anyway, a little about me; I'm a 27 year old programmer from Sweden. Currently I work in the embedded field. I've been using Emacs since 2007 when my first programming course started with the words "open a file in Emacs". Now I spend about 85% of my time at the computer in Emacs, programming, mail, IRC, music... basically everything I can. What I'd like most in a future Emacs is concurrency and better IDE features (incidentally the same things our dear maintainer seems to want :)). I would like to work on the C core someday when I grow up, on things like threading, GC and such. But the code isn't super easy to grok, so I'll probably need some hand holding at first :). Right now I've started looking at the concurrency branch, to see if I can wrap my head around it. BTW, I hang out on #emacs on freenode during the days. I nick either jalle or jockej. Anyway, I hope nobody minds a noob like myself jumping on board the mighty Emacs steamer! Happy hacking :) Joakim
