...so, it looks like verilog-mode won't be in bullseye, which is a
shame. I also wonder if Verilog's importance is going to increase due
to:
https://beaglev.seeed.cc/ (RISC-V with NVDLA Engine)
which appears to support Verilog as well as the (usual?) SystemC.
http://nvdla.org/primer.html
http://nvdla.org/hw/v1/integration_guide.html
Given that no one was/is interested in supporting a non-elpafied
verilog-mode, and Kiwamu Okabe won't have a XEmacs-supported
verilog-mode for bullseye, I would like to strongly recommend that the
team reevaluates the existing position.
Thank you,
Nicholas
