Where would they integrate it. Emacs is a small core of C code. Almost everything is Elisp and in the same standing as third party packages. I’m not seeing what being in emacs core brings to an AI package?
- paddy_m 1y agoWell the linking into GCC was a C code issue. For emacs, there is a large collection of elisp that is shipped with the official package. Preventing worthy enhancements of that core package solely in the name of a distorted view of freedom hinders emacs and the adoption of emacs.
- spauldo 1y agoIt'd be no different than eglot, project.el, etc. Third party packages experiment with stuff, then a stable implementation appears in core.
- paddy_m 1y agoThat would be a reasonable stance if the difference were in incubating a new project vs excluding functionality from blessing because it interfaces with non free software. The functionality I'm talking about is excluded because of the latter.
- spauldo 1y agoIn that case it'd just live on in Melpa regardless of what the mailing list thinks.
