I don't think that's feasible -- if something breaks, then people will be reporting bugs about those things. Not byte-compiling them would just be more work in the long run, because we'd be discovering the issues later, and not when somebody does a change that requires the other files to change. > What about an ELPA package, playing the same role as the dumping ground > folder? If somebody wants to maintain vip.el externally (to take an example), then we could indeed put it in GNU ELPA. But if not, then it's the same -- we're maintaining the things that's included in the ELPA repo. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
