Where is emacs-24?  Following google hits is proving to be a bit of a
frustration. 

I'm a little confused about how things are setup now.  For yrs I
downloaded the most advanced emacs just with `cvs update' in my build
directory.

I dropped off doing that a while back.  Maybe 1.5 yrs or so, when I
noticed my chosen linux distro (gentoo) would do that for me.

Not long ago, the naming changed from emacs-cvs (for gentoos' portage
install tools [emerge]) to emacs-vcs.  First I thougt it was just a
type but no... its changed and what it installs is a version of
emacs-23. 

Just now going back to buiding from sources myself and `cvs updating'
my source tree, followed with `./configure $flags' - `make bootstrap'
and `make install', I end up with an emacs-23 version.

So apparently whats available by cvs is not emacs-24.

So how does one aquire the most advanced sources (publicly available)
now ( emacs-24? I guess).

Just now: Checking the last 1000 posts on emacs devel shows no hits in
subject on `Subject:.*emacs-24', and only one on `Subject:.*24'.  That
one (Mar 11) is about having trouble building emacs24... but no
mention of where to get it.
