Subversion: Contributing Member - Fortune [possible satire]

Great. Just Great. I wanted to remain a lazy leech, just using the selfless work others have done on subversion for my own personal advantage. The problem is, as soon as I read HACKING and learn how to submit a patch and begin by contributing something as tiny as a FAQ fix, I'll be hooked, and I'll start to become a contributing member of society. Next, I'm afraid I'll want to tackle a bite-sized task and help fix bugs and develop the product. (You guys are so sneaky!!) :-)

(“Sorry, Honey. Can you take care of that? I have to submit another svn patch…”)
