Thank you for the kind words. I'm CC'ing my reply to the Emms mailing
list, because the people who wrote all of that great code would be glad
to read it; I'm just the maintainer.

Hacking on Emms is a great way to get started. Find something you'd like
to improve, and go ahead. However, if you are more the literary type,
work on the manual is always welcome as well.

The mailing list we work on is emms-help. Check out the "Subscribing to
Emms-help" section of the following page:
https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emms-help

Emms doesn't have its own irc channel. IRC discussions and questions
usually happen in #emacs on libera.chat.
