    Hello Simon,<br>
    <br>
    If you look at this wikipage [1], it still says we can contribute
    using the `git send-email` to ghc-devs. Now I know you like for
    people to create tickets for bug fixes. But what about really tiny
    documentation patches? The WorkingConventions [2] page only mentions
    how to submit bugfixes and new feature patches.<br>
    <br>
    So should I still use the instructions at [1] or is there some
    information missing in the wiki? Or should I really create a ticket
    for tiny patches?<br>
    <br>
