Right, the extensive use of overlays shows a clear problem here. |
| 10 |
Users could work on a branch of the normal tree to bring in their |
| 11 |
changes, which gets merged by a normal developer at some point. The |
| 12 |
offical dev-lisp category is in bad shape (== not usable at all), while |
| 13 |
the overlay is in great condition because of some dedicated users. |
