We are getting pretty close, and currently there are two main things to do before starting the pretest: adding ruby-mode to the CVS repository, and making rmail-mbox/pmail ready for use. The papers for ruby-mode are already in the mail; many thanks to Phil Hagelberg for helping get them signed. Hopefully, we'll get the go-ahead from the FSF to add ruby-mode to the repository within a week or so. The version of ruby-mode that we hope to commit to CVS is currently hosted by Phil at http://github.com/technomancy/rinari/tree/master%2Futil%2Fruby-mode.el?raw=true so take a look and see if you can spot any problems. Rmail-mbox/pmail is going less well, as RMS does not think the new code is ready for use. If any of you have the time, please offer to help Paul Reilly fix bugs in the pmail code. Much appreciated. Hopefully, we are still on track to start pretest sometime in December; let's see.
