Not automatically, no. You can check http://debbugs.gnu.org/org-mode from time to time, assuming someone reassigns things to that package ("someone" usually does). Any subsequent correspondence on those reports goes to both addresses automatically. If people file bugs with the right package, this will happen from the start, but you cannot rely on people to do that, else you could just ask them to send them to your preferred address from the start. > We would avoid double work: sometimes people fix things in Emacs > that have been already fixed in latest Org version, or I have to > duplicate the fix in Org's version. The right solution to this would seem to be more frequent syncing between the two repositories. Since there is a daily (?) update of the org version in GNU ELPA, I sometimes wonder if the months-out-of-date version in Emacs core is still useful. Looks like it is 7 months behind at present?
