I've found the old discussion on this: - https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=60758#58 - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2018-03/msg00052.html - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2018-03/msg00219.html Based on my reading of this thread and those old discussions, I conclude - it is fine to mark when-let and if-let as obsolete for Emacs 31, and generally there's more of a consensus, and several good reasons, to do that instead of removing if-let* and when-let* - I'd like to go ahead and install a patch marking when-let and if-let as obsolete, unless Michael is keen to be the one to do it as the initiator of the previous effort - enough people want to keep and-let*, but possibly some aspects of its syntax should be removed - I'm retitling the bug to reflect that. -- Sean Whitton
