In-Reply-To: <d999d009-1a19-88f7-fe1e-2b9eb287be33@cs.ucla.edu> (message from Paul Eggert on Sat, 18 Apr 2020 13:10:30 -0700)

[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

Thanks to both of you for working on updating the Emacs Lisp Intro.
Its author, Bob Chassell, became incapacitated many years before his
death, so it has not had the needed attention for quite some time.  I
would be surprised if it didn't have other problems due to the changes
that we have made in Emacs Lisp since 20 years ago.

Would anyone like to pick some chapter and read it looking for
anything that needs updating?  Not only things that are now incorrect,
but anything that is not clear to beginners.
