I'm working on a public response to it. The short version of the answer is: Yes, I am working part-time for Altrasoft and I am coordinating the forthcoming version of InfoDock. This hasn't been kept secret, but I haven't been shouting it from every rooftop either. Hyperbole and the OO Browser were removed from XEmacs at the request of the author. That is standard policy as far as I'm concerned. The previous version of InfoDock was based on XEmacs 19.13. Due to limitations of that version of XEmacs, a considerable amount of code was rewritten. In the case of conflicts with current versions of that code, the InfoDock changes have been integrated into XEmacs. The code I contribute to XEmacs is GPL'ed and FSF copyright assigned. It will continue to be GPL'ed and FSF copyright assigned. I do not envision XEmacs becoming a "Poor Man's InfoDock" (whatever that was supposed to mean). I may be getting paid for developing InfoDock, but my heart belongs to XEmacs. I hope this clears things up. > I am assuming this is a coordination failure between you and Bob > Weiner, but since it is in the open now, could you please comment? > Maybe shed some light on the issues raised by somebody who > unfortunately has chosen to remain anonymous on c.e.x? > Jan > [2 <message/rfc822>] > [2.1 Re: XEmacs and altrasoft <nil>] > Date: Mon, 4 May 1998 16:21:43 +0200 > Message-ID: <199805041421.QAA09795(a)basement.replay.com> > Subject: Re: XEmacs and altrasoft > From: nobody(a)REPLAY.COM (Anonymous) > Organization: Replay Associates, L.L.P. > Newsgroups: comp.emacs.xemacs >> Please check your facts before making personal attacs like that.

MIME functionality bundled with RMAIL? 26 years, 6 months

Hrvoje Niksic

What's this talk of new MIME "functionality" bundled with RMAIL? Even unmaintained, RMAIL seemed to be "just working" for many people on comp.emacs.xemacs. Maybe we should look into reverting it to its 19.14 form. -- Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic(a)srce.hr> | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- We are all just prisoners here of our own MAKEDEV.

The Windows people will apply your patch and fix it up. Hopefully, someone who understands CDE will fix that code too.

Steve? [comp.emacs.xemacs] Re: XEmacs and altrasoft 26 years, 6 months

Jan Vroonhof

Steve, While I think whatever pays your bills is none of your business, I would have liked to have heard it from you first. I am assuming this is a coordination failure between you and Bob Weiner, but since it is in the open now, could you please comment? Maybe shed some light on the issues raised by somebody who unfortunately has chosen to remain anonymous on c.e.x? Jan

Re: [OK, WorkShop broken] 21.0 "Repartida" XEmacs Lucid (beta38) on sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1 26 years, 6 months

Otherwise, it looks fine. fascinating, my build crashes imediately :-( but then I use WorkShop for compiling. Do you have the Sun-package installed in the right place and is it picked up for dumping during the build? In my first try today I had a typo in my package-path and everything went smoothly (i.e. no crash) but workshop-support was missing just like you described. If you saved a log of the build-output you should find something like: Loading /data/source/gunnar/xemacs/packages/lisp/Sun/dumped-lisp.el... (0) Apparently the build doesn't barf if you request workshop but it can't find the Sun-package! Maybe one could consider this a bug?!
