1. ECB is now part of CEDET, which in turn is installed in Emacs, so it can
be removed from the list of packages to install (search for "ECB").
2. The suggestion for "Save undo information" could say to use undo-tree,
which already does that. According to undo-tree.el, it's already copyright
the FSF, but it also says it's part of Emacs, which is surely false. The
author is Toby Cubitt <toby-undo-tree@dr-qubit.org>, and undo-tree's
upstream is at http://www.dr-qubit.org/git/undo-tree.git
I can make these changes if they're deemed apt.

AFAICT ECB is not yet in Emacs. Maybe it's just a matter of sync'ing
with the upstream CEDET, in which case, I suggest we try and sync ASAP
and then we can remove this entry indeed.

Sounds good.

`undo-tree' is in GNU ELPA, and GNU ELPA packages are kind of half-way
between being part of Emacs and not being part of it (e.g. for copyright
purposes we consider them part of Emacs, i.e. a copyright assignment for
Emacs changes is accepted as covering changes in GNU ELPA).
So some packages in GNU ELPA say "part of Emacs", others say "not part
of Emacs", and I think they're both right and wrong.

No, ECB is not part of CEDET.

Thanks, Stefan and David. I've added a note about undo-tree to etc/TODO;
this bug can be closed.
