For any GNU project, i think it helps to understand the GNU GPL and its evolution. When the technical draw ebbs, will you be satisfied w/ what you leave future beachcombers? How to even measure that, now or hence? I'm curious why you chose Emacs. =2D-=20 Thien-Thi Nguyen ----------------------------------------------- (if you're human and you know it) read my lisp: (defun responsep (type via) (case type (technical (eq 'mailing-list via)) ...)) =2D--------------------------------------------- GPG key: 4C807502 --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlUCESMACgkQZwMiJEyAdQK5RACguqMwBT+7BCeC0LyhfsAn34JB oyYAoKQm4Sw2uO94wl7SRlv985c8fGu5 =LEpV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
