Are you asking for volunteers to clean it up? AFAICT, that's the only reason emacs-devel needs to hear about this. We know there's a problem, we know some ways to address it ... but Don evidently doesn't consider them "solutions". If you do, the answer is to volunteer to implement them. That is admittedly likely to be a big job, as (unless Don is more free with accounts on his system than I am) it probably involves migration to a GNU-maintained host. I'm certainly not willing to do it myself. OTOH, the BTS with spam is better than we had before, no? You-could-be-using-the-MacPorts-tracker-which-is-how-I-spell-pain-ly y'rs,
