AFAICT, we never asked Emacs maintainers before adding a feature to Org, and I don't think the number of export targets in core grew exponentially lately. Also, I don't see why Emacs maintainers would want to limit features provided in an Emacs library, as long as it doesn't impedes GNU goals and copyright issues are sorted out (which is not yet the case of the file we're talking about). > That's different: supporting as many programming languages is a core > feature of Babel, while supporting as many export target as possible > should not be a core feature of Emacs IMO, it should stay as a nice > facility of the Org ecosystem. > > The second part of the paragraph above ("while...") is where I'd be > interested to hear about what Emacs core maintainers think. Sorry, I cannot understand this argument, since the target is a "tex" file, and we already export to "tex" files. > If you're fine with this, I'll raise the topic on both emacs-devel > and this list. I suggested this idea because I thought it was a good one. The very fact that we're still discussing it proves that it isn't as obvious as I initially thought. That's fine with me. I will not insist anymore on this topic. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
