Just to clarify: The question is not _whether or not_ to sync, but _when and how_ we sync the Gnus repository to Emacs' repository. > Then the burden falls on Reiner or others to backport things into > the "for Emacs" branch when appropriate. The "burden" basically is on Miles, but it's more or less automatically. Well, at least if every developer commits bugfixes to the bugfix-branch (which will be synced to the development branch) by Miles. > This would bring the Gnus CVS trunk back to the "bleeding edge" status > it had in the past. The Gnus trunk also had long stabilizing periods (e.g. from 5.10.1 to 5.10.6). Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- | PGP key available | http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
