Message-ID: <87zmxc6sio.fsf-monnier+gnu.emacs.help@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 399bktF5u12hpU1@individual.net
Discussion of development versions of Emacs, as explained in INSTALL.CVS
should take place in emacs-devel or emacs-pretest-bug so that problems may
have a chance of getting fixed before the release.
Please,
Stefan
