I'm reading this list.

To put it more precisely, XEmacs in testing has been deleted
because of RC bugs. See,
http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2004/06/msg00021.html
And I took over the maintenance from the previous maintainer.
Now I'm working on fixing RC bugs.

Only one problem is `SEGV problem on ia64'. See BTS
entry #207412, #149088 and #218241. If I won't be able to fix
this RC bug, I'll drop ia64 support. There is no other
difficult problem about xemacs21 package. So I hope I can put
xemacs21 into sarge release. Please wait one or two weeks.
Thanks.
