Comment(by rransom):

 The ‘Patch checklist’ should include “document all new or changed
 configuration options in the fantastic man page”.

 No one reads `doc/HACKING`, because it's hidden away next to a bunch of
 obsolete documents.  The `HACKING` file is supposed to be in the root
 directory of the source distribution, right next to `README`.
