Hi,

Emacs 22.1.50 now displays a warning when loading the semantic.el that
comes with cedet-1.0_pre3. This is in spite of the semantic bug being
fixed in the Gentoo version long time ago. In this special case it is
no problem, since it is easy to upgrade to a newer cedet version.

However, shouldn't the version regexps in general be sandwiched
between \` and \' pairs? Then distros could stick an extra version
string on, and the check wouldn't trigger anymore.

Also, it shouldn't match version strings like "12.0pre3".

Ulrich

Yes.

You should probably complete a copyright assignment for Emacs. Are you
willing to do that?

I already did, in December 1993. ;-) Is this no longer valid?

Oh, I see. No, that's fine. It was listed under "Muller" rather than
"Mueller", so I missed it. Sorry for the confusion.

It is valid, but it only covered the changes you had made as of that
time.

Would you like to sign something to cover your future changes?
