next emacs version?

[Drew Adams]

What will the next Emacs version be?

I just got a bug report for my Dired+ code, because of a recent change to
files.el for the regexp `dired-move-to-filename-regexp'. I have a fix that takes
the new regexp into account, but I need to test for the Emacs version that has
the new regexp (since I support multiple versions).

The person who filed the bug report has GNU Emacs version 24.0.50.1
(i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.16.6)... He says he just updated from BZR.

But I thought the next release would be Emacs 23.2, not 24. What is the proper
test (or a reasonable test) to use in the code, for this change? It's OK if I
don't support the change until the release is out. It's the test for the
official release I'm most interested in. (But I'm also interested in advice
about testing against an in-development version.)


 Thx.
