OK. However, I'd already made the same point (maybe you didn't see
it, it may have been on -review or threaded incorrectly due to
spamtrapping of Kean's posts), so I took your post as a little more
approving than you intended it, I guess.
licensing, I don't have a problem with my code being relicensed
if the
whole project goes that way (which it looks like it is).
I don't think we have a choice if we want to remain a viable fork of
GNU Emacs. I've seen several people suggest a ground-up rewrite of
Emacs recently, and that would give us a choice. (Some who can code
as fast as Ben Wing, so it's not an idle threat.) Sad to say, they
want to rewrite GNU Emacs, so it's a non-starter. :-(
