As a matter of fact, FWIW, I did check - precisely so that I wouldn't
misattribute the cross-posting. I checked on the bug web site.
Apparently I did not check well enough, however. Mille excuses. Yes, Yidong
first cross-posted it, not you Eli. That was the first message of the thread
after the merge of 8219 and 1242 (first message of 8219).
I scanned the mail headers from the top of the web page (where there were only
messages for bug 1242 and no cross-posting). I apparently missed the first 8219
post and mistook your reply to that one as the first cross-posting to
emacs-devel. It was an honest mistake on my part.
Apologies to you, Eli, in any case.
But who did the cross-posting was not really the point (not my point, anyway).
The reference was meant only as a (recent) _example_ of such cross-posting.
Anyone, including me, could have cross-posted to emacs-devel.
The point is that IMHO we should try to avoid such cross-posting. As Glenn
said, there is a reason there are two lists.
