Understandable :) If we added some sort of bleeding-edge peer-to-peer
way to contribute to worg, it would certainly be in addition to
tried-and-true methods like emailed patches.

I really like the git+email workflow.  Perhaps we could also benefit
from something like https://git-send-email.io for teaching new Emacs
users how to submit patches with Emacs.  Maybe it could simply teach
people how to use M-x report-emacs-bug or M-x package-vc-prepare-patch.

I think the biggest hurdle is setting up Emacs for email, so maybe we
need a wizard command for that.
