GPLv3|L8R -- Status report - ready for inspection? 4 years, 4 months

Mats Lidell

Hi, Here comes yet another status report from the project of converting to GPLv3 or later. There are two lists of files below. The first list contains all files that are in an undecided state. Please inspect: Do we need to do anything with them. If so what? The second list contains all files that we can leave untouched and the reason for that. Please inspect: Are all reasons OK and correct? Are we getting close to the were an inspection of the xemacs-gplv3 repository could be performed? With the intent that it that is OK we could merge back to trunk and go GPLv3 or later? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "CHANGES-beta" "ChangeLog" "PROBLEMS" "README" "README.GPLv3" "etc/ChangeLog" "etc/Emacs.ad" "etc/InstallGuide" "etc/NEWS" "etc/ONEWS" "etc/OONEWS" "etc/README" "etc/editclient.sh" "etc/emacskeys.sco" "etc/emacsstrs.sco" "etc/gtkrc" "etc/package-index.LATEST.gpg" "etc/sample.Xresources" "etc/xemacs.1" "lib-src/ChangeLog" "lib-src/README" "lisp/ChangeLog" "lisp/README" "lisp/mule/mule-locale.txt" "man/ChangeLog" "man/README" "modules/ChangeLog" "modules/base64/Makefile" "modules/common/configure-post.ac" "modules/common/configure-pre.ac" "modules/zlib/Makefile" "nt/ChangeLog" "nt/Emacs.ad.h" "nt/Installation.el" "nt/README" "nt/Win32.cf" "nt/lisp.ico" "nt/site.def" "nt/xemacs.dsp" "nt/xemacs.dsw" "src/ChangeLog" "src/README" "src/README.kkcc" "src/m/README" "src/s/README" "src/s/freebsd.h" "src/s/irix6-0.h" "src/s/netbsd.h" "src/s/sol2.h" "tests/ChangeLog" "tests/Dnd/README" "tests/automated/README" "version.sh.in" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- These files below are the files that we might be able to leave as they are.

When do experimental packages turn stable? 5 years, 5 months

Hauke Fath

Hi, I recently ran into a gnu emacs compat issue[*] that I learned has been dealt with in fsf-compat 1.24. Looking through /pub/packages, I found 1.19. Grovelling deeper, I came across /pub/beta/experimental/packages, which indeed has 1.24. My question: What is the relationship between the two directories? When do "experimental" packages move to /pub/packages? And, with my pkgsrc hat on: Under which circumstances would it be fine to package the content of /pub/beta/experimental/packages? Cheerio, hauke [*] vc-fossil.el <http://chiselapp.com/user/venks/repository/emacs-fossil/doc/tip/doc/index...> wanting declare-function -- The ASCII Ribbon Campaign Hauke Fath () No HTML/RTF in email Institut für Nachrichtentechnik /\ No Word docs in email TU Darmstadt Respect for open standards Ruf +49-6151-16-21344 _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Perl 6 5 years, 5 months

Tom Browder

There is an emacs version of a Perl 6 mode on github at: https://github.com/hinrik/perl6-mode Unfortunately it seems to depend on one or more other emacs packages which I don't believe have any XEmacs versions. Is anyone interested in porting the Perl 6 package collection to XEmacs--or at least helping a non-lisp programmer do it? Thanks. Best regards, -Tom _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
