Of course. That is a genuine interest in the development of Emacs. It
would appear that André has such a background. However, his earlier
post, the one to which I replied, looked like it could have come from a
troll. We have had at least one troll on this list in the last few
years, and he caused a great deal of wasted time for a lot of people
before I told him to go away. I was prepared to do the same again, but
this time sooner. Happily it turned out this was not needed.

Amongst quite a few other things.
