• keep Disk space is cheap, human effort isn't. No real reason to delete it, and well, almost all open source projects start small. Bryce 22:10, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to the main Emacs article and add a one-line mention about this port in there. The article is really devoid of real information anyway. -- Hirudo 14:53, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
