There is also one more issue though, a legal one: your changes are by no means trivial, so I'm not sure "we" (i.e., automake developers and/or contributors) can safely take a look at them until your paperwork with the FSF is in place.

And providing also a ChangeLog entry in your patch would be nice (even a rough draft can be good as a starting point; it can be improved in later iterations without any fuss). > Best, > > Nicolai > Thanks again for your work, and please don't be discouraged by our, erm, suboptimal responsiveness. I think the feature you are proposing would be used and appreciated by many automake users, so it would be a pity to let it wither. Best regards, Stefano
