PS whilst looking through bugzilla, I noticed references to "Emacs-23"
packages in Red Hat, eg
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=443639
Perhaps I misunderstand, but I think this is a recipe for trouble.
There is no such thing as "Emacs 23" yet. "emacs-snapshot" or
"emacs-cvs" would be a much better name. I'm not sure releasing
"emacs-23.0.60" rpms makes this distinction clear. "23.0.60" is a
movable feast that doesn't have much meaning as a version number. The
date of your CVS snapshot would be much more meaningful.
