Thanks for the clarification. But in order to compile 26, I would need to checkout the 26 from the git repo? Do I understand that correctly? > The 27 version is really bleeding edge, containing changes which > are considered too risky for the next release.

Well I started to use that version at a time a specific BIDI function was only in master but not in the official release. Later a similar thing occurred with vc.el. > From a previous post, I think you mentioned you were running from > git master from mid/late last year.

I am running emacs git master from end of January. I am running the git/master version of org mode from last june. Why? Well Nic put in some very useful stuff in org-table (not in the official release now), but then later in September/October the whole template engine was changed in master and I could not find out you to make it work again, that is why I stick to that very particular org version. > I suspect you are likely to run into a number of bugs with the > latest development version of emacs and you are probably one of the > very few who are looking at bugs in that version. Good luck. Yeah maybe. At least this way reporting them I could contribute a bit to GNU emacs. :-D
