Hopefully this does bridge the gap between lurker and contributor! There are many times that I myself have wanted to contribute a one-liner, just to find that I need to signup and confirm membership to a mailing list, or open an issue with a registered account, etc, etc... so, this could be cool
Yeah, it's a neat idea. It has now become 100x easier to submit source patches than changes to Wikipedia!
This is really fantastic. I'm going to start browsing Google Code Projects now. :)
I hope Github adds this as well.
You can already edit files from your own repos on GitHub from web browsers.
Now only if they would add in the on-the-fly diff view, as well as a real in-browser editor widget instead of a simple textarea
I use the Bespin scriptlet to turn the Github edit textarea into a code window.
javascript:(function(){var elem=document.createElement('script');elem.setAttribute('src','https://bespin.mozillalabs.com/bookmarklet/bookmarklet.js);document.body.appendChild(elem);})()
Just tried this out today for the first time, actually, to see if the workflow was doable on my CR-48.

Anything that lowers the barriers to entry, at least for submitting patches, is fantastic in my book. My contributions are certainly going to increase. +1 for GitHub support!
