That's the history of RefTeX's incarnation in Emacs' CVS repository, not the history of the original distribution. It might serve as an approximation for the real history. If it's simple to include it in AUCTeX's repository, I won't object using it. > AFAICS, emacs/lisp/textmodes/reftex.el,v goes back to > 1997.

Yeah, I know. An easy solution would have been to disallow changes in Emacs' CVS repository and just check in new releases once they are out. But if bugs are fixed in Emacs' CVS repository that's actually an advantage because then we don't have to take care of them. (c: So we should probably ask Miles if he can set up some synchronization machinery. At least from Emacs' repository to the one of AUCTeX. I'd like RefTeX to have its own ChangeLog file. But that will probably not match very well with the current situation where the file in Emacs' `lisp' directory is used. Perhaps RefTeX could get its own directory in Emacs. > That aside, shouldn't we ask on emacs-devel before kind-of taking out > a part of Emacs? As far as I am concerned RefTeX will keep its incarnation in Emacs' CVS repository. But once we've sorted out what we can on our own, it's certainly a good idea to discuss outstanding questions on emacs-devel. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
