I think it's less 'hate' and more 'ignore'. I am aware of this because
I was explcitlly emailed about it and tagged in the PR; if that hadn't
happened, I would have no idea that anyone had done anything. Sending
PRs on github is a waste of time.

For anyone following along 9front, the typical way we do things is
sending mail to the 9front mailing list; our git tools are designed
to work well with this. You can either export the patch and pipe
it via mail:

        git/export | mail [email protected]

Or paste a diff into an email, if you don't want to deal with
maintaining and rebasing commits:

        git/diff >/dev/snarf
        <compose email, send it>

One caveat: If you're pasting into the gmail web ui, it will mangle
tabs, turning them into spaces.

If you want to join #cat-v, and have an idea of who to ping, a lot
of code review happens via webpaste and poking someone directly as
well.

On the committer's side, we can take an email and import it as a
commit, so it's appreciated if you phrase the emails as commit
messages:

        git/import /mail/fs/mbox/91620/

It'd be interesting to figure out some sort of patch tracking
system for the website on top of this, but, meh, nobody has
bothered so far.
