This is my first every message to a mailing list so I have no idea how this works. Pointing out mistakes is welcome, I will learn. On the topic, Sacha interviewed Johnw recently in which he mentioned the need of having a benchmarking/profiling system for emacs. He says the performance has been decreasing over time. Upon listening to this, I contacted John and showed my interest in putting such a system in place. He happily agreed to help me with it. During this time, I switched job and migrated to a different place. This took 2 months for things settle back to normal. Yesterday, I talked with John again on the subject on #emacs and he said nothing has happened for this so far. I am interested in this project, and would love to contribute. There are a few issues however. First is, I have never learned any of the Lisp language. I have just purchased SICP and going to start it. Moreover, I have never worked with profiling systems either and know nothing about them. I want to learn and contribute to the dearest editor/interpreter. Share your thoughts on this, give me guidelines and help would be much appreciated! --=20 - D Vaidya. --=-mEYldS5CMdvMpuTOWVo4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABCAAGBQJW7S+XAAoJEDbD0Javya67IT8QAMJp/Tx1q7fRY1W1lAYtrycy oPto/HO9LieHkGUdZ95zJHU/G1nWgd4EF6AELDXKpN+RMFSvBDzfeRL6IWo3dmn1 8u0GiT5SvDKnppVh7bw4yMD1SiKt/3blAoz8EZkQcFgZVHWGymRwJz+kf3fBv2Se p/MwZ0kJdM0l2FJzD9Tpek683JGGNHr/rMbQyvSlv8Cae4DHJUNkJZMSqsgSe34H d5wtHnbl8p7+DIOzAfzrB1HISv4bh4RgjPLKR9f6aM+FWo8Ebit2PfDzEGHbpr8S FZBhisov+JrTOVctMuK+m0XHNuADKfzy+iHsya88KXH0ZbKFKH0PgVFoKqvtrpCP xnIh0s/n+c78nsX/cv9fnovAULbxeHc2BUVmQSv02aDgiVLiZbqlkVS+nNS1DmK/ UB26XBt4vt1p3JwIU9Jq7MKQsB3Z0KdsvZo6fEZqUS/hhJfS9JxhzrTAVuB5mtBs pgLMh2jqM8nHTYeSTGSgECQCCcqq/KTsZiqJ84yApYfuJtZ94QQbflN6ZTBpp58y Xk+vTJqtO2fpdLdUcYmc8Y/DtX1pO6tCp2ZcsbHBII3oIcGEcnPf/CwwJvkQoU8T b4OjvfqehDMF35wJNVXJay0g4IGzTfa32Ust4OISYbxryn6kqGra2JXm0bt9QJx9 4bIInfhhwJNMejH0QbH8 =OQOs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-mEYldS5CMdvMpuTOWVo4--
