<> I think that the strict conformity of Epoch to the last version of GNU
<> Emacs is one of its strongest points, especially with comparison to
<> Lucid Emacs.

   I support this idea strongly. 
   
   Not only that, I *depend* on it. Not being in the position to afford
   to have a Sparc workstation at home, I am limited to use a PC and a
   modem to connect to the Sparc at work.  As Epoch is based on the
   latest GNU Emacs, everything works just fine for me running Epoch at
   work and running GNU Emacs over a modem from home.
   
   The system I am working on is way too big to be transported over the
   phone and installed on my PC, so the compromise to run GNU Emacs
   remotely is a good one. Using "ProCOMM for Windows" with 132 columns
   and 50 lines in their vt100 terminal emulator, also makes life much
   easier.

   So, PLEASE, dear Epoch developers, never change the policy of basing
   your system on the latest GNU Emacs!
