That sounds good to me. It makes sense to me to track both bugs and future enhancements in a similar kind of way. (BTW, anyone looking for a data mining job? There's a goldmine of useful discussion on future enhancements (which may also be simplifications, of course) in the mailing list archive.) thi> might as well specify a known format, how about rfc822? it's thi> time to see how well the elisp translation machinery holds up thi> to rfc822.el (moderately hairy load IMHO). if not, someone thi> will check in rfc822.scm soon i'm sure. Now you're playing dirty! Handling rfc822.el will require a basic buffer implementation: forward-char, insert, buffer-substring etc. etc. But surely that's a more interesting task for someone than translating rfc822.el as a whole to rfc822.scm. (To make it really interesting/useful, do this by preprocessing the relevant source files from the Emacs distribution. (Damn, I'm quite tempted myself now.))
