Eli Zaretskii (did I mention he won an FSF award for his contributions to Free Software) writes to tell us that the first pretest for Emacs 29.1 has been released. The final release of Emacs 29.1 is still some time away, of course, but this is good news: it tells us that the process is advancing nicely.
As I always say, thanks so much to Eli and the rest of the developers who work so hard to keep Emacs the best editor in the world. If you run across Eli or any of the others, be sure to buy them a beer. In the meantime, if you don’t mind living on the edge, run the pretest and report any problems you find.
