I think you're speculating. Please state clearly what parts should be
patched (it's GPL software!).

I am very much interested in the topic of using Discourse to promote
the agenda of free technologies and a public digital infrastructure,
which I already proposed informally to the FSFE at various
occasions. I already proposed to host it myself and offered to use it
as an experimental tool in support of the Public Money Public Code
campaign.
