Tasks needed before the next release.
* TO BE DONE SHORTLY BEFORE RELEASE
** Check for widow and orphan lines in manuals;
make sure all the pages really look ok in the manual as formatted.
** Regenerate the pdf versions of the reference cards in etc/refcards/.
** Ask maintainers of refcard translations to update them.

** Remove temporary +++/--- lines in NEWS.
** Try to reorder NEWS: most important things first, related items together.
* BUGS
** Does deleting frames run Lisp code? If so, can we get rid of that?
It is a dangerous design.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-09/msg01330.html
** Why were the calls to x_fully_uncatch_errors commented out in eval.c?
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-09/msg01987.html
** rms: gnus-dired.el is a mistake. Those features should not
be part of Gnus. They should be moved to some other part of Emacs.
rsteib: Gnus dependencies in `gnus-dired.el' (and `mailcap.el') have been
minimized. I don't know what is left to do here.
** Check for modes which bind M-s that conflicts with a new global binding M-s
and change key bindings where necessary. The current list of modes:
1. Gnus binds `M-s' to `gnus-summary-search-article-forward'.
2. Minibuffer binds `M-s' to `next-matching-history-element'
(not useful any more since C-s can now search in the history).
3. Shell mode binds `M-s' to `comint-next-matching-input'.
This key binding can be changed later when we will implement
incremental search through the shell history.
4. `center-line' in Text mode was already moved to the text formatting
keymap as `M-o M-s' (thus this binding is not necessary any more
in `nroff-mode-map' too and can be removed now from the nroff mode
because it can now use the global key binding `M-o M-s' `center-line').
5. PCL-CVS binds `M-s' to `cvs-status', and log-edit-mode binds it to
`log-edit-comment-search-forward'. Perhaps search commands
on the global key binding `M-s' are useless in these modes.
** sdl.web@gmail.com, 30 Oct: ps-lpr-switches has no effect
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-10/msg02091.html
Fixed by this change?

* ps-print.el: [...]
(ps-do-despool): If ps-lpr-switches is not a list, force it to be one.
** In C, use EMACS_INT for variables and structure members
for buffer/string positions. E.g. struct it, struct text_pos.
* DOCUMENTATION
** Clean up Emacs.app references in code and documentation.
** Document new font backend
** Document XEmbed support
** Check the Emacs Tutorial.
The first line of every tutorial must begin with text ending in a
period (".", ASCII 0x2E) saying "Emacs Tutorial" in the respective
language. This should be followed by "See end for copying conditions",
likewise in the respective language.
After each file name, on the same line or the following line, come the
names of the people who have checked it.
