+# Emacs core development: how it works
+Stefan Kangas
+
+[[!inline pages="internal(2023/info/core-before)" raw="yes"]]
+
+- Why it is fun and exciting to contribute to Emacs
+ - We have easy bugs that anyone can fix, in random packages
+ - And extremely hard ones for experts in things like garbage
+ collection, and compilers
+- We are not scary, in fact working to build a welcoming culture.
+- The nature of a public list
+ - Don't listen to random people being negative or hostile
+ - No response is not necessarily a bad thing
+- Cultural aspects of emacs-devel vs GitHub
+- How to behave (be polite, etc.)
+- Email vs forge, help wanted.
+- Why copyright assignment
+- Plans for Emacs 30 (maybe) - needs coordinating with Eli
+
+If I have more time, I'd like to cover more things, for example:
+
+- GNU ELPA vs NonGNU ELPA - why and how
+ - Our plans for GNU ELPA going forward (bundle stuff in tarballs)
+- The future of Emacs: a vision
+
+Basically, I want to do everything I can to inspire people to join core
+development and to lower the barrier to participating. In effect trying
+to work on "bridging the gap" that we have identified exists between
+emacs-devel and the community.
+
+About the speaker:
+
+Stefan Kangas is one of the Emacs core maintainers.
