CC'ing Romain, since I think this might be interesting for him.

I'm currently using emacs22 from the emacs-snapshot package in gutsy. In
fact, it was me who requested the sync from Romain's private
archive. I'm not sure if you are aware of this fact.

In fact, there is already an emacs22 package in debian/experimental.
What I wanted to ask you is: Are you working on that package, or on
Romain's emacs-snapshot package? Or are you working on your own emacs22
package? In any case, why?

The problem I see with debian's package is that is strips of
documentation in another source package, something that we don't need
nor want in ubuntu (well, we could make our lives easy and just hard
depend on the documentation, but let's not go crazy here..)

For gutsy, I think we should decide if we want to ship with
'emacs-snapshot', go to experimental's emacs22 package, or work on a
dedicated 'ubuntu emacs22' package.
