I only have one more question, but first - IIUC it seems my TODO list is as follows: 1. Dump the files at sdf.org so I don't have to worry about loosing 10+ very pleasant years of work and my very own Emacs and zsh Linux VT system 2. Physically clone the SD card with the system so I dare upgrade it 3. Get the latest Emacs in the Debian and/or Raspbian repos and get all the source to work for that version *gulp* 4. Get the license stuff done and move everything to Git 5. (Hasn't been mentioned, but) isolate a dozen or so stand-alone projects that I believe in the most and put them on MELPA Sounds good? Now for the question. If code and projects aren't announced on listbots/newsgroups, how will people know about them? This is not just a question of my projects, but also the other way around - how will *I* know what *other* people do? Can't we have an ENE (the "Emacs News Ezine") where an editor compiles a list with short comments on the most recent and interesting stuff? PS. Obviously I'm not going to back down from my own suggestion, so I volunteer as assistant editor. I would volunteer as the main editor but I think I'm the least suited person for such a job because I only know what goes on on my own computer and workshop - and sometimes, actually, not even that :)) -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
