with something cleaner. Otherwise, continuing to use git slime will be a pain to maintain.
I don't know what to say.
My personal plans would be to completely remove xemacs support (some 400 of "portability layer" and numerous "(featurep 'xemacs)") hacks that IMO hinder progress greatly. Most of the new features that I planned to introduce wouldn't work on xemacs anyway, as it doesn't have lexical scoping for example.
Wow! I am really behind in Elisp. Since when it has lexical scoping? Cheers — MA
