Well, I'm looking for bug reports and/or enhancement requests to be tracked and discussed proximate to the repository containing the source.

When folks ask questions on the simh list which potentially need code changes, I try to encourage that to create issues in the github repository issue system.

I qualify this statement to exclude issues which are obviously going to solicit an answer from Bob (John Dundas's message today "[Simh] PDP-11: CSM bug and fix" is an example of that).   If any issues are create on the github issue system which Bob would be the obvious authority for, or if his input would be valuable, I point him at the issue.  Anyone can subscribe to get updates from the github system via an RSS feed.

No issues have been raised on the issue system about documentation.  If there were, I'd redirect those issues to the simh list.
