[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

There are some deep incommensurabilities of premises between your
views as you've just stated them and mine.  We seem to differ on goals
and values.  Your stated concern is for Magit users, whereas my
concern is about Emacs as a part of the GNU project.

I think the best chance of coming to some understanding, and perhaps
agreement, is to talk privately.

I can't communicate any more now, whether publicly or privately.  It
is time for me to go to sleep, and I will spedn the next 24 hours
sleeping and then flying.
