It's good to set it up as packages, but if it's not ready for prime time, we shouldn't put too much effort into maintaining it. I'd like to see us get in touch with the authors, see if they're willing to maintain their code as XEmacs packages. Give them commit privileges as appropriate. Offer them bug-reporting addresses (somebody remind me to update aliases-xemacs at tux...). What we (XEmacs) should do is document these packages in some place users will see it. Evaluate them, at least to the extent of saying whether they look like they'll make it out of contrib before we release 22.0. :-) R> appreciated then we can include this stuff in cc-mode :) Make a separate package, only put it in cc-mode when the cc-mode people say it's OK. In general separate packages for separate maintainers or separate functionality is a good thing. This is especially important with packages that are actively maintained upstream. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN My nostalgia for Icon makes me forget about any of the bad things.
