The problem is that most modern comparison tools show diffs where
there are no "changed" lines (the "!" mark of "diff -c"), they only
show "-" and "+", i.e. as if the edit distance is a sequence of just 2
operations: delete and add.  So "changed" doesn't have a clear and
immediate interpretation in terms of the presentation in diffs.

That's clear enough.  How about this text:

  Once the cumulative amount of your submissions exceeds about 10 lines
  of non-trivial changes, we will need you to assign to the FSF the
  copyright for your contributions.  (To see how many lines were
  non-trivially changed, count only added and modified lines in the
  patched code.  An added or changed line is non-trivial if it includes
  at least one identifier.)  Ask on emacs-devel@gnu.org, and we will
  send you the necessary form together with the instructions to fill and
  email it, in order to start this legal paperwork.
