Re: No calc in pretest?

    What about between v17 and v18 ?

You could run Version 18 Emacs in VMS.  This was a big deal.

Also, searching was made several times faster, and Emacs could no
longer run out of memeory during garbage collection.  These, too, were
big deals.

In general major version number changes have always been big deals.

The change that seems to have caused all this discussion is the idea
of having two tracks, a `bug-fix' track, and a `new-features' track.
In the past, there was only one track, which included both bug fixes
and new features.
