Hi Lukasz,
Thanks for your contribution.

There’s a couple of issues.
1. Write access to the org repository. For that you need an SSH (not
PGP) key. This tutorial from GitHub
<https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys/> goes over
what is needed. When you get to step 3, instead of entering the key
file in GitHub’s website, you email it to Jason Dunsmore or Bastien
Guerry.
2. Copyright assignment. For code in org’s core, you need to have a
copyright assignment on file with the FSF (because any code in org
will eventually become part of emacs). The process is documented
here: <http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#unnumbered-2>.
The org mode repo has a contrib directory, where it is OK to put code
without a copyright assignment. This is bundled into
org-plus-contrib packages that many people install, but cannot be put
into emacs releases.
So org-eldoc can be added to contrib immediately, and then moved to
the core (i.e. out of contrib) when the copyright assignment is
complete (if you decide that copyright assignment is something you
want to do, and also subject to the judgment of the org maintainers).
Does that make sense?
Thanks again,
