[Http-emacs-dev] Re: Problems with http-emacs CVS sources line endings

[Pierre Gaston]

Hi, I have stop working on this for some time now,
and i'm not sure i will for some time also (deego has stop working
on this before me).

If you want cvs, admin right on the project, just tell me so.
I've done the check in from an windows machine but I must admit
I didn't pay attention to line endings.

I you want to maintain this code go ahead.
