Hello Malcolm, have you build natively (MS DevStudio C++) or with cygwin tools? For the native build, I think at least EFS, PCL-CVS, W3 are all broken by MS path conventions used in XEmacs.

Mark Moll

It appears that m2ps (the program to convert mule encoded files to PostScript) is missing. Is there a different way now to print these files? -- Mark

Re: Proposed version number change for 21.2 26 years, 1 month

I'm very frustrated with how things are being numbered. As a matter of fact, I think the release currently being planned on being numbered 21.1 (a bug fix release for the elusive 21.0) would be better numbered 21.0.XX where XX is greater than the beta number we finally release at.

How late are they announcing the winner? It's really late on the east coast. I hope it's the Apache group. They have taken on Microsoft and are kicking serious butt. They have proven in spades that Open Software must be taken seriously. Bill Gates and his billions cannot seem to buy a dominant share of the web server market and a group of dedicated and talented volunteers can. I like that.
