I can't imagine how a kindle reader with a one-comma change will now be able to submitthat, no. Especially since he's working from a copy three versions old that's been corrupted
by intermediaries.
You perhaps expect him to acquire an SSH ticket, register with you personally, download
a completely different version, add his comma, and install an Hg client to sent it back?
You're right, that's certainly not a workable crowd-sourcing scenario. I can't see how to
implement crowdsourcing that way either.

This is going to be a lot easier to understand if you can tell us what
measurable difference someone willl experience when you're done. So far we
just see the painful parts.
If you already worked with VCS, and still you cannot imagine how a VCS can improve the current workflow, then nothing I can tell you can make you see.
