Re: FreeBSD port

Sorry if you've done something already, most of this i relevant anyway I think. But I'm just going straight through my mail, and this is the end of the thread....

Better yet, try to tease apart the various patches. In particular, if you and Kiriyama-san are in agreement, then I would (as 21.4 Release Manager) tend to accept all patches which are in freebsd-specific code (that is, they are guarded by conditionals that reduce to #ifdef FREEBSD && (...)). OTOH, if the code could get built into a non-FreeBSD build, I would have to look closely at it personally. If you and/or kiriyama-san want to maintain these changes in the XEmacs repository, it might be the best of all possible worlds. You would get commit authority to 21.5 (but only after approval by a Review Board member); I and Vin would still have sole authority in our branches (21.4 and 21.1 respectively). Let me know if you want to do that (Martin used to handle it). I don't know how we go about adding comitters at the moment; I'll get back to you on that.
