Re: Merging multitty

[Richard Stallman]

    Your point that Karoly is not going to be available for much longer is a 
    point against merging into trunk quickly IMHO. Either someone else will 
    step forward to maintain that code, in which case it doesn't matter if 
    the merge to trunk happens later, or noone wants to maintain the 
    multitty code, in which case merging into trunk would be a mistake.

If the code is working, well commented, and clear, then once it is
merged in, people will learn to maintain it.  So I agree with those
that think it is better to merge multi-tty first -- if it is working,
well commented, and clear.

If there are some cases it does not handle yet, that is no great problem
as long as it doesn't totally break those cases, and as long as the gaps
are well documented.
