Legacy font system is a big one. Emacs is about its last big user, and compounds the problem with special needs (not just plain "Fixed" like about every other straggler) (That may have changed, I haven't run emacs in ages) > I read through your list and some of it seems reasonable > (Emacs has its own accessibility approach, AIUI -- not my area), but > some doesn't (print infrastructure? I think Emacs forks lpr or > whatever). And we've been moving away from lpr since lpr-ng was sidelined in favour of cups (lpr-ng was a terrific lpr system compared to the cups emulation. cups was chosen because lpr was not the target) > That asked (again), I don't see what the big deal is. Is somebody > proposing dropping Emacs or something like that? Someone objected to emacs not being in the defaults anymore. I just explained the process by which an app gets self-sidelined. And then emacs people piled more questions, like I had to justify a process that was happening without any special intervention of mine. You're right, and I'll stop responding now. -- Nicolas Mailhot
