PalmOS is als well known and also has a lot more users than Emacs. But
there you say it is unethical to use it and support should be
dropped.

Personally I don't really see the difference between PalmOS and
RealPlayer. Both are non-free, proprietary, closed and
unethical. Maybe you have some secret agenda but these ad-hoc opinions
and suggestions to package writers are rather weird to read. They are
amusing though :-)
