I prefer to install via APT (vs, e.g., tarballs). I have been using
emacs-snapshot packages from http://emacs.naquadah.org/ :

my sources.list
> deb http://emacs.naquadah.org/ stable/
> deb-src http://emacs.naquadah.org/ stable/

since they're more up-to-date than the main debian packages. I'm
wondering, can I get an even more up-to-date emacs via debian packages
without "going all the way" to sid/unstable?

TIA, Tom Roche <Tom_Roche@pobox.com>
