A great deal of DEVEL.HUMOR is not very funny unless you happen to closely follow emacs-devel; take Handa-san's wonderful rendition of "Imagine" against unibyte, for example, or Stefan's joke about the "u"s in colour, behaviour, etc. (which he deadpaned just when I was homogenizing spelling all across the sources). Now that I think of it, I'm a bit surprised I didn't put the file under admin/ :) > BTW, a better file name for all of it seems to be HUMOR.EMACS or > JOKES.EMACS to emphasize that the jokes are about emacs, and not just > a random collection of jokes. In the case of DEVEL.HUMOR, I don't particularly like the name; I used what was suggested to me. Juanma
