List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:2154 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:2154 I realise that Emacs releases have changed, and odd-numbered releases are different in some way to even-numbered releases, We do not have any general convention about odd and even numbers. Many of the problems I raised since the last pretest (AFAIK 21.1.90, almost 2 months ago), which (AFAIK) were fixed when reported, are not fixed in 21.2. That is because we put only safe and simple bug fixes into 21.2. We make a release like this from time to time when it seems important and the next ordinary release is some time in the future. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
