It apparently felt through the cracks. We're missing reviewers these
days.

Could you send it again with a commit message more in line with our
habits (variable modified, etc), and two spaces at the end of sentences?

Thank you.

IIRC, when I reviewed another series, you were nearing a number of
changes at which we should make sure you've assigned copyright to the
FSF.  Assuming you haven't already, please consider doing so (see
<https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#copyright-issues>).

Thanks.

Appreciate the reminder, Kyle. I emailed the form per the 
directions in that link roughly two weeks ago.
Still waiting on the assignment contract.

People at the FSF may be having difficulties with processing these
requests due to the current situation.

If you don't get an answer within a week, I'll send an email to see
what delays we can reasonably expect.

Thanks, Bastien. You're probably right re current situation 
slowing things down.
However, things are moving along.
I received the assingment form on 05/06.
Had a bit of a delay on my end with signing.
Sent digitally signed form on the 17th.
I assume I'll receive some sort of confirmation from FSF when 
everything is processed?

I have a couple of outstanding patches Nicolas requested changes 
on.
I will submit revisions once paperwork goes through.

Yes, you should receive a confirmation - if not within a week or so,
let me know, sometimes asking again helps.

[Patch] Document org-capture-templates entry type default strings

[No Wayman]

I've included the default entry type strings for each entry type 
in org-capture-tempalte's
docstring. Made a couple clarifying edits as well. IMO this is 
better than having the user hunt for the defaults in the source or 
experimenting by creating each type of template:

Thanks for the patch.  The lines are wrapped and it is not easy to
read it in my client.  Can you resend it as an attachement and update
