So I'm going to stop here. But to answer something quickly verifiable: Several people agree that contributing to Emacs is trivial, to the point that you do not need to read _anything_ to make a contriubution, even a significant one. So what problem exactly is known? > Your message was quite far larger than both documents together > ... consider that for a second.  No. I measured specifically for you: "Sending Patches" alone is 5884 characters not counting bullets, and my email was 3491 characters. Exaggerated claims, get overblown responses. *shurg*
