What needs to be done so Vimpulse can get included as part of Emacs? I know two things: 1. fix Vimpulse's most serious bugs: it is currently buggy 2. do copyright assignment: it hasn't been done yet, and Donald Robertson, GNU copyright clerk, said it must wait until you accept vimpulse into Emacs. (The two main authors have agreed that they will assign copyright when needed.) I wonder: What else?
