(OTOH, maybe it doesn't > matter since these changes are already assigned to the FSF via GNU MDK?) I do have access to fencepost and to the copyright file (sorry for being lazy!). Just checked, and i'm on file for "GUILE" and for=20 "EMACS EMMS"... i am pretty sure that means EMACS /and/ EMMS, so i think we're fine :) >> Do you think it'd be better if i just dropped that file from MDK's >> tarball and maintain it by submitting patches here instead? > > I guess it depends on if your users can wait for the changes until the > next major Emacs release, or if you feel that it would be beneficial to > get the changes out there earlier than that. Orthogonally, one could > perhaps consider if this should be distributed as a GNU ELPA package. We release less frequently than Emacs, so i am guessing users (all three of them!) will be fine either way. On practical terms, GNU ELPA would be my less preferred option, since it'd add yet another repo/project to maintain. > In all cases, it would be very helpful if you could submit patches here > when there are any changes. Yes, that's no problem. I am not the original author of the mode, so back in the day I didn't pay attention, but my elisp skills have improved enough in the intervening 20 years and i'm happy to take care of it now :) Cheers, jao --=20 If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month. =E2=80=94 Theodore Roosevelt
