See the egcs page that gives the general guidelines: http://egcs.cygnus.com/contribute.html Note, new features usually are discussed in the general mailing lists before being put in. For EGCS, the mailing list is: egcs@cygnus.com (subscribe via egcs-request@cygnus.com) In terms of the FSF mailing list, I don't recall the details of joining (previously, it was a closed list). -- Michael Meissner, Cygnus Solutions (Massachusetts office) 4th floor, 955 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA meissner@cygnus.com, 617-354-5416 (office), 617-354-7161 (fax)
