8.0-RELEASE and Emacs port
Hello! A few hours ago, Chong Yidong, Emacs maintainer, has been released Emacs 23.1 on gnu.org's mailing lists. Since i use Emacs as default mailer, i really want that FreeBSD Project Release Team to add Emacs 23.1 (Stable Ver.) into FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE. Because i use only -RELEASE branch as far as i possibly can. Then i can use pkg_add instead of ports, so easily. Thanks in advance ..;; Sincerely, -- Your new son-in-law.

I think we can make it by updating the port before this weekend. There is a bit of testing to make sure that we can repo-copy the editors/emacs port to editors/emacs22 and check that the new editors/emacs port for 23.1 works fine. I'm working on it, and I will post patches soon-ish :) pgpAJZYPn7zwe.pgp Description: PGP signature

FreeBSD Project's SPF rules marked Giorgos's mail address (keram...@freebsd.org) as softfail. That's bad news to me. SPF [RFC4408] is Experimental draft, you know. Actually Giorgos's mail is very healthy message. Hmm.. i cannot understand why FreeBSD Project postmaster team adopted such lame email policy. Please let's go with another policy (e.g., RFC4801). There is good role model on RFC4801. The Python Project deployed RFC4801 rules in their own mailing list server, as far as i know. And i heard that is working very fine ...
