release notes:
ah methodology, the programming of programming.
still a ways from the programming of programmers,
but that must necessarily be a self-directed task.
emacs can be useful there but at best peripherally.

NEWS excerpt:
- basis-2-synch-2 | 2005-03-29
- New convenience script available (in this directory): PREP-ZIP
- Code Porting: no changes
- Build Methodology
Requires Autoconf for VMS version 1.104 or later.
Much of [.VMS]*.COM is now offloaded to "autoconf --installvmslib";
bindir, libdir and infodir are no longer manually initialized and
AC_SUBSTituted (although many other variables are); bootstrapping
flow was finally written (includes byte-compilation but not doc
build); RUNTEMACS.COM was removed in favor of PRE-INST-EMACS.COM;
the DONTCOMPILE list now includes two extra files that crash Emacs
during bootstrap byte-compilation.
Bootstrap+install *tested* (yay!); walltime approximately 4hrs.
See README for updated build instructions.
- Installation Methodology
Requires Autoconf for VMS version 1.104 or later.
KEPTEDITOR.COM is now installed in $(pkglibdir), which is a
child of $(libdir), which is a child of $(exec_prefix). This
change should be transparent to GNU_STARTUP.COM users (which
should be most everyone).
Installation no longer creates $(lockdir).
- GNU CVS Repository Integration
More small bits here and there (focus was on Build Methodology).
I have received email from Richard Levitte and hope to be able
to clear up some integration issues with his help.
The patch filecount is 97 (down from 173 for basis-1-synch-1).
