emacs22 upgraded then disappears ??

[William Case]

Hi Ed;

If you are an emacs user, the emacs22 has many great enhancements and
reorganizations.  GNU hasn't yet declared emacs22 out of beta for some
reason, yet it is extremely stable from my experience and judging from
the support it gets on the GNU emacs mailing list.  It is worth getting
even if F7 is only a month away.

Because there was a high demand for it, the emacs22 was made available
as a beta through Fedora.  It is being maintained especially for FC6 and
will be included in F7. See emacs-22.repo

[emacs-22]
name=Emacs 22 for Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://people.redhat.com/coldwell/emacs/fedora/$releasever/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

If you want to check, there is an exchange between me and the emacs22
maintainer wihin the last 2 - 3 weeks on this mailing list.  I usually
keep all such exchanges but somehow I have inadvertently deleted it.  If
you want to see it just search the April and May postings.

The original reason I wrote this post was to inform the maintainer of
emacs22 that there was a small problem with his latest update.
