Er, well guessing what you meant[*], it seems a reasonable enough thing to do -- I'm referring to _fundamental_ changes in representations, etc. I think _those_ are unlikely to change, but nevertheless the unicode branch still is different enough from the trunk that merging it would probably cause a fair number of bugs. I think that such bugs would be minor enough that using the branch for development of something like Aqua Emacs is quite reasonable (such minor bugs probably wouldn't significantly affect the work on the Aqua backend, and subsequent bug-fixes would likely be straight-forward to merge), but they would unnecessarily delay a trunk release. [*] as you seemed to have used the phrase "beg the question" incorrectly -- it means "makes the question pointless" -miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
