In an ideal world you'd be doing 6 builds (21.[145] Mule & non-Mule) per make target per platform (all the platforms that XEmacs supports).

What I will say is that we are very grateful and appreciative of the fantastic work and invaluable information that your smoketests provide. Thank you *very* much, Mats!

Mats> I recently dropped 21.1 because I thought 21.4 was soon Mats> going to be the official release. Should I bring it back on Mats> line again? 21.4 _is_ the official release now. However, we're committed to backwards compatibility for 21.1 for at least 6 months. There are a lot of people out there using it. It's one of the world's greatest editors, after all! :-) So it's useful to continue smoke-testing the packages against it.
