    > I hope to release Emacs 22.2 in a few weeks,

    I hope there was a "a pretest of" missing above.

I am not sure a pretest is needed, with a few new packages and a few
dozen bug fixes.  But it can't hurt.  However, all that is a side
issue.

The main point is that people need to fix the bugs
in order to make Emacs 22.2 possible at all.
