I have a problem with that. The address I use on Usenet has a spam
filter on it. I prefer not to post with official contact addresses.

Something went horribly wrong there. Imperfections of e-mail
communication I guess.

In fact I have had a good relationship with the current maintainer.
The main problem is that he has too little time, but don't we all. As
for not forwarding bug reports. He knows I scan the debian bug archive
from time to time so I think he is forgiven for not doing that.
It used to be that the Debian bug tracking system was the only
decent archive of XEmacs bugs there was.

I have more 'problems' with Karl :-) He has _too much_ time (Hi Karl!)
. I send him a mail asking him to stay conservative with the changes.
I do hope he implements that ~/.xemacs stuff, just that we put it into
21.2 first.
