Pull requests against the /jsonn/src tree (just like /jsonn/pkgsrc) are
very likely to be just ignored. As such, the normal way to contribute is
via patches.

One note of warning: due to the nature of the conversion process,
sometimes hickups occur and there is a forced commit to trunk or one of
the other branches, depending on when/what changed. This can be somewhat
painful to deal with, so be warned.
