I probably won't read a thread that discusses how to fix a bug. I would not expect a decision about a change in features to be made in such a thread. Thus I propose a rule, which I hope people will remember to apply, that if a change in features has been discussed inside a thread about a specific bug, always to raise the issue on emacs-devel afterward. -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
