OK so I totally understand and appreciate where you are coming from.
One follow-up question: for database-like data that's already in MAME and can be argued is part of hardware documentation, would you accept patches for that stuff? As an example, let's consider button names. Many games don't include button names in the driver description within MAME, but many do. Is this considered part of the hardware documentation that MAME would accept enhancements to?
It's not that I'm volunteering to do this - I have no idea what the real button names are for all of these games - it's mostly just an academic question to help solidify my understanding of mamedev policies.
