Another thought: with multi-tty and vc we have had two destabilizing dumps of code without the single upstream author acting responsible for integration and maintenance in Emacs. multi-tty was sort of a strategical decision. I can't remember any discussion or rationale for the half-finished vc.el, however. If this trend continues, there will never be a stable merge basis for unicode-2, let alone a stable Emacs 23 release. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
