Hi All,
This may not be the best place to ask, but I wanted to check here before
sending personal mails: The package 'fold-dwim' (very nice, IMO) is
available on melpa
https://github.com/melpa/melpa/blob/master/recipes/fold-dwim
, which fetches it from the 'emacsmirror' repo
on github.
Is there any standard procedure to contribute? I have an implementation
of a small "TODO" line in fold-dwim.el, but I am unsure about pull
requests on emacsmirror --- mostly because there are none :)
Thanks for any pointers.
Ingo

You would need to track down the original author and submit a bug report to
him directly.

Looks like Jonas (tarsius) is manually maintaining it as the original
author has probably abandoned this package?
Because why would this package live on emacsmirror otherwise?

He mirrors every package he can; it's not a commitment on his part to
maintain, or volunteer to maintain, abandoned packages that he happens to
mirror.

BTW, we generally welcome new packages in elpa.git.
Just saying,

I have never heard back from the original author, and I do not want to
volunteer to maintain the package (much less a fork). Any other
options? Otherwise I will just keep the patch private... :/
