Re: [harder@ifa.au.dk: icomplete-mode interferes with transient-mark- mode]

[Ken Manheimer <klm@zope.com>]

I am willing to continue maintaining icomplete, but i would not mind
passing on the responsibility to someone else, if they are interested in
doing so.  In lieu of that, i plan to scratch out some time in the next
few weeks to investigate this issue and some allout issues that you also
forwarded to me.
