Hi Lennart,
Thanks for the reminder, as I had forgotten. Anything that makes
maintaining the CEDET code in the Emacs repository and my own repository
easier will help to help work around the paperwork issues I have to deal
with. That would indeed be a big boon for me.
I hadn't acted on these suggestions in the past because my Linux
distro had been so old and I was too lazy to build whatever vcs was
suggested myself. Now that I've upgraded, this is no longer an issue.
Thanks
Eric
