This note is a follow-up to a 2006 post I made suggesting notes-mode for
inclusion in emacs.  At the time (2006) I was told that emacs-22's
release was pending and it was in feature freeze.

emacs-22 has been out for a while now, so I thought it was worth trying
again.  I just did a new release (1.26) today, the first since
Jan. 2006, so it's been very stable, and all collected to date are
rolled in.

Are the emacs maintainers now interested in picking up this package?
