Subject: Re: eval-after-load not harmful after all
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2009 13:21:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvab27zixh.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <998B83F771474211A37D1E2B6A497B61@us.oracle.com> (Drew Adams's message of "Mon, 10 Aug 2009 10:01:21 -0700")

I don't know what makes you think it's "demonized".  We explicitly
support and document the feature, so we clearly think it has value.
But we also want to make it clear that within Emacs's own code, its use
is discouraged (but not disallowed).
