For some meaning of "work".  I don't fire up X11 on my mac more than once
every month or two.  But I use Carbon Emacs every day... it's essential in my
workflow.

What kind of skills are needed to make Carbon Emacs "work" again?  Maybe I can
go to the OSX mailing lists and plea for someone to pick up the cause.  But I
need to know what skills a person will need.  Can someone at least outline
that?
