Contributions Welcome
---------------------

Happy August, fellow gophers!

I'm aware that it's been terrifically long since the last update,
which was itself overdue.  I could bore you with inane excuses about
summer holidays, visiting relatives, etc etc., but I'll try to avoid
this.  Mostly because I don't want updating my phlog to become a
source of stress - there's plenty of that out there on the surface
web, and I want this to be (among many other things) a respite from
that.

While this phlog's not seen any updates recently, I have been slowly
adding tiny improvements to the hosting of my programming projects on
this gopherhole, and thought I should mention a couple of important
new features.

Firstly, it's now possible to leave feadback directly on several of
the programs, particularly Elpher.  So, if you happen to be among the
few who use this, let me know if you encounter any obvious pain
points.

Secondly, and slightly more dramatically, I have now opened the git
server up to allow anonymous (fast-forward only) pushes to branches
beginning with the prefix "patch_".  Thus, it is now possible to
directly submit patches to any of the projects, and these are
definitely welcome.  Of course, I can't guarantee that I will merge
every patch submitted into the master branch, but I'll do my best
to incorporate any contributions as best as I can.  Thanks!

'til next time...
