I'm all for attracting new blood, I just don't think CONTRIBUTE is the
place for that.

People who are not sure whether they would like contributing to Emacs
shouldn't have to read 250 lines of boring technical information to
arrive at this text.  And people who are already contributing should
have a clear, concise, and to-the-point document which describes what
they want to know and nothing else.

Let's start a MOTIVATION file if we want to have this in our
repository.
