Okay.

"Official" means: passing it into the FreeBSD ports system, from which
any FreeBSD user then can build/fetch emelfm2. It does not make sense,
to add the whole bunch of patches just for emelfm2 v0.1.0, if it will be
replaced by a newer version in two weeks, for example. Therefore I
asked. But if it should take an unknown amount of time, I will do so and
add the patches to the ports system.
