From 4c51710e91b5868f5674c66a28f7dd08716fc66f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "jbranso@dismail.de" Date: Sun, 14 Jan 2024 21:33:45 -0500 Subject: update the emacs open issue page. * open_issues/emacs.mdwn: I changed the version number, and I described that the latest Emacs works really well on the Hurd. It might be a good idea to remove Emacs from the open issue page.
