Re: address@hidden: url-http.el breaks Emacs/W3]

[T. V. Raman]

Thanks for tracking this down!

The problem is that w3 is moribund -- has no maintainer, so even
if I fix the problem locally in myinstall of emacs, it still
breaks for all users of emacspeak -- who I suspect ar epretty
much th only users of W3.

So while w3 waits for a maintainer, or while emacspeak users wait
for a browsing solution that works, could we work around the
problem in url-http.el?
