The original plan was to merge CEDET in time for the freeze. However, this isn't going to happen because of a delay in legal paperwork; hopefully, CEDET will be included in 23.2. Emacs.app (the new Cocoa port) will be merged sometime this week. As for Emacs 22.3, bugfixes made to the trunk should be backported, where safe and appropriate, to the Emacs 22 branch. This backporting of fixes will carry on throughout the Emacs 23 testing period, so that both the trunk and the branch can benefit from the bugfixing effort. If things work out, we can make the Emacs 22.3 minor release during the Emacs 23 pretest. If you see an existing bugfix in the trunk that you think should go into the Emacs 22 branch, please email the commiter with a reminder to check it into the branch (or email emacs-devel). I'd like to request volunteers for going through the Emacs 23 documentation. The Emacs manual and Emacs Lisp manual need to be updated with the information in etc/NEWS. If you would like to help, please email me. Finally, if you are a naughty person who has not added a proper entry to etc/NEWS for your new code, please do it as soon as possible (or ask someone for help). Thanks.
