+Hi Tomi;\r
+\r
+What do you think about a more user-focussed item, something like \r
+\r
+,----\r
+| No Emacs 22 support\r
+| -------------------\r
+| \r
+| We started some Emacs 22 support, but it never really worked, and the\r
+| last remnants have been removed from this release\r
+`----\r
+\r
+but better, of course ;).\r
