List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:6514 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:6514 The package allows better network authentication for IMAP (in Gnus), SMTP (e.g., smtpmail.el) and third party packages (my Sieve package for instance). Would this perhaps replace some existing Emacs packages? It should obviously not go into 21.3, but if 21.4 is freezed soonish I think it would be nice to include it. It is not too late. Should I send a patch? I have not verified all paperwork yet though. Do you think that package is cleanly written? That is the main thing we need to check, and it is fine if you check it for us first.
