Its looks anachronistic and behaves crippled People who are unhappy with the rate of Emacs releases (and with pace of Emacs development in general) should come on board and help the few core developers in doing the mundane job of preparing Emacs for release, rather than whine in public about ``anachronistic look-and-feel''. > There is a excellent windows binary cvs emacs distribution available > at http://nqmacs.sourceforge.net/. Actually, the binary on nqmacs is quite outdated. Whoever maintains that should probably release a newer binary ASAP. > Why not supporting a binary cvs gtk2-emacs for linux at ftp.gnu or > sourceforge.net? Whats the problem with that? How about if you prepare such a gtk2-emacs and put it on sourceforge.net? What's the problem with that? The CVS code is freely accessible for anon.
