Thank you. I was very impressed how fast you guys moved!

Unfortunately, I'll have to wait for 28.2. But thanks for the offer
nevertheless.
I needed to move back to Emacs 27.2 because there are some other bugs
in 28.1 that I have no idea how to properly report:
- Emacs 28.1 most often crashes after loading a .emacs.desktop.
It doesn't crash without a .emacs.desktop or with a simple one, but
at the moment I cannot start 28.1 on any of my usual .emacs.desktop
files without a crash. I suspect only a reboot will solve that.
After the last reboot, I could start 28.1 once with a complex
.emacs.desktop, for a second (simultaneous) Emacs instance with a
different .emacs.desktop I had to use Emacs 27.2.
Would it help to supply one of the crash dumps that macOS displayed
and how would I submit such a bug report?
- The second bug concerns .emacs.desktop.lock files. For some reason,
28.1 doesn't remove the lock file when exiting.
Obviously, this isn't reproducible with `emacs -Q`. Again, how would
I submit such a bug report?
Thanks again and have a nice weekend,
Christian
PS: ATM, I'm not set up to compile Emacs myself as I temporarily moved
into a very small house and don't have any Linux machine here. I'm
not masochistic enough to setup up a compilation environment on
the little Macbook I have (which is severly lacking on disc space).
