    1.  We would probably want to add the ansi-colors Custom group to
        relevant XEmacs-specific groups (in particular, package system
        related groups).  This would best be done in ansi-colors.el
        itself, probably conditional on (featurep 'xemacs).  Any
        problem with that? 
No problem.  Just tell me what you need.  If at all possible,
it will be in the same places for Emacs.

...
    2.  Does it make sense to add the finder keywords
"terminals"
        and/or "services"?

        terminals     support for terminal types
        services      provides services for use by other programs (cf `user') 
Sure, I'll do that.

...
    3.  If you wanted to, you could support this as a
"regular" XEmacs
        package.  Then it would be listed explicitly in the
        list-packages interface, browsable by users unfamiliar with
        it. 
I prefer not to do this, as I use XEmacs only occasionally...  :)

...
    4.  If not, normally people who maintain XEmacs packages or parts
        of them are granted access to the relevant package on
        request.  If you wanted to, you could almost treat the XEmacs
        anonymous CVS server as the primary mirror of your primary
        repository, as in 3. 
I prefer not to use CVS, since I have internet access from work, and at
work we have a Windows environment.

...
        The default option is "you contribute, we synch when we
feel
        like it, nobody cries if the code diverges." 
Cool.  :)

Alex.
