As @JordonBiondo reported herehere (this answer is a verbatim copy of his answer):
The procedure for reporting bugs, requesting features, and submitting pathces is outlined in the manual.
C-h rmBugsreturn
Or read online:
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Bugs.html
In a nutshell:
- use
report-emacs-bug
for bug reporting and feature requests - ask the dev mailing list if you think your request requires more discussion
- check the existing bugs and search the mailing list to see if the topic has already been discussed and concluded upon
- read the manual for how to send patches
- subscribe to emacs-devel or even bug-gnu-emacs if you want to be more involved or informed about what is happening in emacs development.
