The original reason for the change was that nobody wanted to maintain
the "Carbon" port (i.e. the OSX code used in Emacs-22). Now that we
switched, we have no intention to go back, so please help us improve the
NS code in Emacs-23 by reporting (via M-x report-emacs-bug) the problems
you encounter.

Stefan,
Thanks for the nudge. I have reported more bugs :)

I'd like to ask a question on a more serious note.
To me, emacs is a very important piece of software, and I would like
to do what I can to help it improve.
What is the best way to follow emacs development? Just check out the
trunk [1] and rebuild on a regular basis? Are there incremental
branches done between release versions?

Yes, and also trying to compile the sources differently to see how
robust they are. I am using libraries from Fink and from MacPorts and
see (or better: saw on Tiger, on Leopard I haven't had the opportunity
yet to compile GNU Emacs) differences.

GNU Emacs versions are released...
