Hmm, I'll have to think about this. I'm reluctant to put the XEmacs-specific code off in a separate place. I suspect it would make it too easy for someone to change the common code and forget to make any corresponding changes in the XEmacs-specific code. Using nested repos might make that less of a concern, depending on the specifics of the tool and how the workflow is set up. mike
