So I'd like to get this merged in before it bitrots too heavily. It would be a shame to not get it in, after how far it's come! Now that it's rebased and running on master, there are two issues I see that would need to be addressed: - The most recent commit disables three tests (specific to elisp). They should probably be re-enabled, or at worst at least commented out with a warning rather than being switched to expect-fail as they are right now. I'd prefer re-enabling them with fixes; for now, commenting out with clear explaination still seems better than bitrot though. (The other tests all do pass.) - The commits are not in ChangeLog style format and are fairly terse in their message. I imagine it's a requirement to fix that. This seems like the bigger challenge; if anyone but the original author were to do it, there would have to be some careful reading to figure out what the purpose of each commit and change meant. That seems like some work. I'm not sure I have the time for it... are there any volunteers? Is there general agreement that if we can get these two things done, that it would be worth merging this? - Chris
