This is a short summary of what will and will not go into Projects: Emacs Muse 3.02, along with an attempted explanation of my lack of response to several mailing list posts.

What will not be addressed by 3.02

These are fixes planned for after the 3.02 release.

• LaTeX tweaks: I don't know enough about this publishing format, and that is causing a bit of thrashing around.
• [[subdir/PageName]] links: This is a good idea, but I might break things if I implement it.
• Link escaping ("#" to "%23"): I don't want to deal with this problem yet.
• Table publishing issues: Ditto.
• Bug #2824 (Uninterpreted tags not being escaped in xhtml publishing): Ditto.
• Flyspell issues: I don't know how to fix these, and previous attempts weren't a good investment of my time.

What will be included with 3.02

• Update NEWS file.
• Add at least one more section to documentation on ways to customize Muse.
• Review documentation and make sure it's up-to-date.

Explanation

I've been unexpectedly busy with helping PLUG move into a new office, planning for Plug Wiki: Call Out, doing paperwork, and making sure we interface well with other student organizations at Purdue.

I'm trying to find a routine for getting fun work (like Muse, ERC, and EMMS) and homework done. The current plan is to process bug reports and work on features/fixes in the morning before classes start. I'm about 2 weeks (in worst case) behind on the lists now, instead of 3 weeks.

I'm not going to focus on emacs-wiki fixes or issues at all until Muse 3.02 comes out, since this has been lingering on my task list for too long. Sorry. Please feel free to continue reporting issues and suggesting fixes though, and I'll get back to you once the release happens.
