I hadn't actually read section 22.3 before writing contrib.txi, I have to
admit. I have now and I don't think that contrib.txi makes section 22.3
obsolete. In fact, I think they are complimentary, for what I was
thinking. Naturally section 22.3 could/should refer to contrib.txi, when
it's completed & DJGPP 2.04 is released.

OK, perhaps calling it "contributing to DJGPP" was a bit misleading -
maybe "development tips for DJGPP" would be more appropriate.

BTW should FAQ section 22.3 also suggest CC'ing djgpp-workers with
patches, rather than just DJ?

Bye, Rich =]
