I think the first thing would be to start the copyright assignment
process so that your contributions can be incorporated into Emacs.
For that please fill the form below and send it to the FSF as instructed
so they can send you the relevant paperwork to sign.
I already sign the papers for contributing to Emacs (mostly because
I contributed to the GNU Emba repository).
Ah, indeed, sorry I didn't look carefully enough (I looked for
`fermin` without accent, duh! ;-)
Even better.
- IIRC there were changes in the upstream CEDET code which still haven't
been merged into Emacs's `master`.
Yes, I talked with Eric, and there are test and other code that wasn't
merge, among related packages like cogre, which didn't
merge into Emacs at the time, adapting the code to fit in master would in
deed be really interesting.
Right, some parts didn't get included, indeed, but IIUC in addition to
that, there are changes that were made later in the upstream repository
(to files which do exist in Emacs's `master`) and which haven't been
propagated to Emacs's ` master`. Maybe I misremember and they did all
get propagated at some point, of course.
Anand Tamariya <atamariya@gmail.com> has a branch of CEDET (sadly
based on Emacs as of a year ago) at https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs
which includes various interesting additions (such as an SQL
grammar). I recently started to try and work with him to start
merging some of those changes into Emacs's `master`.
I talked with Anand privately about the changes, I think they can be a nice
additions to CEDET, I can help with the merging process.
Great, thanks, feel free to Cc me along the way. I think what we mostly
need is to "get started" by picking some simple patches which can be
easily integrated into Emacs (and then work our way up to more
challenging changes).
