I'm afraid that I'm a little lost on all of this WRT syncs.

I understand that at some point all of Emacs CVS is going to be
re-licenced v3.  Code present in Emacs up to that point we can sync with
freely, but syncing with code after that point would cause XEmacs to be
re-licenced v3 as a consequence.  The re-licensing is a problem because
we haven't decided yet if we want to use v3 at all.

Have I understood this correctly?

Malcolm
