I'm afraid you're missing the point: distributing Magit with Emacs is not terribly important, compared to fostering good relationships. BTW, if we want to distribute something like Magit with Emacs, there's no need to write a replacement: we can simply include Magit itself, since the license allows us to do so. The only hurdle is the one *we* (Emacs maintainers) put. Stefan
