There is no "version 22.0.x", this is merely an internal string for keeping track of pretests. I consider it completely pointless to upload "emacs22" before Emacs 22 is released, since emacs-snapshot is available in unstable. > Although I'm not yet satisfied, if your opinion is a collective > opinion of the upstream developers, I withdraw my proposal. My opinion is my opinion. If you want to get the opinion of the upstream developers as a whole, you have to ask on the Emacs developer list which you didn't, either, before announcing your intention here where it is more or less an accident that I happen to read it. > Anyway, I hope that Emacs 22.1 will be released shortly. As I said: at the current point of time it looks like first or second quarter. Longer than that, and the first murders among Emacs developers would occur. Given that you are talking about a 2008 release line, there is no incentive to create additional confusion. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
