Re: Packages at release

Rick> I agree. I think that the packaging is a very positive development as Rick> it offers more flexibility. However, I feel even more strongly that Rick> one of XEmacs' major features is that it comes bundled with so much Rick> stuff that (a) most people don't feel any need to keep extra packages Rick> (I'm using the term loosely here) around, and (b) the installed Rick> packages tend to interact well. My intention, regarding local Rick> support, is to install with SUMO and leave things alone until the next Rick> release. I suspect that a lot of others will do the same. I intend to do the same thing. There's no way for me to know what people are using today, so the safest and easiest thing for my to do is to grab everything and install. If that's missing stuff, then the individual users can get there own. Ray
