Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2011 22:33:20 +0100

Package: emacs-xwidgets 

Internal links work everywhere, where i checked, but possible the code on 
them is unfinished. Internal links definitely work on Emacswiki and 
Wikipedia

(That was 8 years ago.)

I have no idea if that needs more work or not.  To find out, someone
needs to test it and then possibly point to some concrete issue or
improvement that would need to be made.  We can only hope that if and
when users test this feature and encounter problems, they will report
it as bugs or feature requests.

Unfortunately, I see nothing actionable here beyond that, so I'm
closing this bug report now.

If you believe that this conclusion is incorrect, please reply to this
email (use "Reply to all" in your email client) and we can reopen the
bug report.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
