Thanks for bringing this up.

Well 21.4 was a quiet security fix minor release for the movemail format string
vulnerability (also fixed in emacs-21.3-21).

It seems the next major release will now be numbered 22.1
but we'll have to wait a little longer yet for that I guess.

So: are there plans to have 21.4 in FC4?

Good question: since there seems to be quite a bit of confusion around the version numbering of the next major release, I wonder if it isn't better to just keep emacs at 21.3 for fc4 unless the major release should be ready in time... In addition the documentation in 21.4 still refers to 21.3.
