- Any other enhacements or suggestions are gratefully received; just bear in mind that diffs must be relative the Feb 2001 source base in order to be considered. Together with the other Hugs authors I will also continue to issue some form of "editor's discretion" when it comes to deciding what the distributed version of Hugs should look like.
Some advice to people submitting changes: Back in the days when I was maintaining Hugs, changes were substantially more likely to be merged into the main base if they were decomposed into a number of small, independent changes whose impact and consequences could be understood in isolation from the other changes. For example, Hans' stack overflow changes sound like a feature that all Hugs users could benefit from (i.e., not just MacOS users) but it really needs to be submitted as a separate set of patches if Johan is to correctly integrate them and if various individuals around the world are to submit modifications which make the stack overflow code work on other platforms (Sparcs, x86s, etc.) -- Alastair Reid
