GCC has many developers who are paid by various companies.
That makes it easier to make plans and actually carry them out.
The Emacs contributors are all volunteers, so we can't tell anyone
what to do. We can only exhort and apply naked emotional pressure,
which works only sometimes.
I've been trying for more than 10 years to urge people to work toward
giving Emacs the document capabilities of a word processor, but I have
not convinced people to do this work.
