I disabled the patch section because it seemed more trouble than it was
worth to keep it separate: patches can be attached to bugs which is how
I'd prefer it.
You can continue to use mailing lists if you want, it doesn't matter to
me (in fact mailing lists are often better for initial proposals to get
comments) although address@hidden is better for discussing patches
and new features, than address@hidden
Regarding the amount of change, it doesn't just cover the code change
but all the rest of the changes including docs and tests... here's the
doc covering this:

This is already invalid syntax so you don't have to worry about that.
There's no way to create a target containing a colon in the name except
by hiding it inside a variable:
FOO = foo:bar
$(FOO) : baz
