I shall come up with that page, and show it to you folks and transfer it to www.gnu.org and sugest that it be linked from http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html#YouHelp <-- and i shall try to get macs.org and other sites to link to this emacs page... ==================================================== While i am at it, consider this page: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ this leads to a 'page not found' ---- i suggest there be an index.html here linked to http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html . ==================================================== Moreover, in the page: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html consider item 9 in the contents--- If you want to help with GNU Emacs i feel like 'capitalizing' it... and making it more inviting, like: HELP WITH EMACS WELCOME... ==================================================== consider now the one-liner contents of item 9--> To contact the maintainers of Emacs, either to report a bug or to contribute fixes or improvements, send mail to . adding this line to the contents would be nice--> To see the TODO in emacs, type C-h C-t (new versions of emacs). OR you can browse the TODO here. <-- we could simply put the TODO online at: www.gnu.org/emacs/TODO and be linked, as suggested above, from item 9.. i shall try to reexamine the TODO and see if it can be organized better in debian-packaging style. Until then, do the above suggestions look reasonable? ==================================================== D --
