Thanks. Could you please submit the changes as patches for the
emacs-29 branch of the Emacs Git repository? The tutorial file is
new, so you could just send it as a separate attachment, but the rest
will be more convenient to install if you submit patches in the form
of "git format-patch" against the emacs-29 branch.
As for your question about misc-lang: there's no particular reason,
just that we didn't want to have too small files with one or two
language-environments in them. The name of the language files are not
important, since they all are preloaded into Emacs.
