It won't hurt to explain every time until people can be expected to be familiar with the process. It would also help those of us who do know how it's supposed to work if you would say how often you and Vin are actually doing the synch so everybody knows how much lag to expect. Something like: Each patch is committed first to the "xemacs" repo. A few days are allowed for code review and obvious bugs to surface. If no issue is raised, the patch is pushed to the "xemacs-beta" repo. Currently patch flow is intermittent, and lags have been 3--5 days since we generally push a bunch of patches at one time. We don't announce these pushes because it would just be an annoyance most of the time. In this case you just happened to post a day after the patch hit "xemacs", and during the discussion the repos got synched. If you "hg pull" in your "xemacs-beta" now, Jerry's patch will be included and `font-lock-add-keywords' should work correctly. Please let us know if that is not true. would be more than sufficient, I suppose, and by summer you could probably abbreviate it quite a bit. It's *really* important, though, that you give a (conservative) estimate of what the lags are. For my part, Neal, I apologize for not making it clear that the patch was expected to be pushed to "xemacs-beta" within a couple of days. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
