   Hello, Richard, Eli, and Emacs.

   Richard posted some embryonic code for cond* a little over a week ago.

   To move things forward, I propose creating the git branch
   feature/condstar, and incorporating the new code into it in
   lisp/emacs-lisp/condstar.el.  This will enable its development to happen
   more systematically and rapidly.

   Does anybody have any objections?

I hope it goes to master directly, it is a single file that doesn't
affect anything else.  And _if_ existing code is updated to use cond*
that will get much more milage.

Nothing should really stop development if this lives on master, or a
branch.
