ESR's response to Ian Taylor:

"Then I don't understand why David Kastrup's question was even controversial.

"If I have failed to understand the background facts, I apologize and welcome being corrected.

"I hope you (and others) understand that I welcome chances to help the FSF's projects when I believe doing so serves the hacker community as a whole. The fact that I am currently working full-time on cleaning up the Emacs repoaitory for full git conversion is only one instance of this."

(I haven't been following ESR (not being part of his tribe and all), nor have I really been following Emacs. Do the other Emacs folks know about his "clean-up" there? Is it going to go any better than his clean up of the Linux kernel build system?)
