 I think when Stallman did gcc and emacs, he wasn't so much in the
current state. Isn't emacs currently stalled, anyway, as he demands
that they fix /every/ bug in it? It's a very worthy goal, but the way
it sounds, he's doing it in a way that will make the next emacs
release years in the future.
....
This is the same emacs that lost the leading '1' from it's version number
since it would never see the version '2' light of day... ;-)

If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian
principle -- absolute busyness -- then utopia and melancholy will come
to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy --
and without consciousness.

 -- Günter Grass
