Where is the version control tree for Emacs, then?  That's *my*
preferred form for making modifications.  Arguments about the need to
check out a source code version will be met with arguments about the
need to load up code in an editor for me to edit it, and if necessary
an extension to a relevant editor that let me load it up directly from
the repository :-)
