if they are like apache does their modules its a brilliant idea
look what it did for apache its the most used and capable web server around
Yes, only that our version is still labeld experimental.
The biggest problem is we don't have API for modules. Jerry
James said he's interested in defining API but AFAIK we
haven't heard him lately. (I still have 2000+ unread
messages in xemacs-beta folder so I don't know what happend
while I was away).
BTW, I have written a module for using Subversion[1] from Emacs
Lisp. I've been too busy to propose it to be included in
XEmacs, though.
[1] http://subversion.tigris.org/
The Ruby binding which I also wrote is in Subversion repository.
