emacs-snapshot is now taken from the CVS trunk rather than from the Emacs 22 release branch. You may want to put your current version on hold, or use the emacs22 packages from Debian. However, if you feel adventurous and choose to upgrade, you will have:
- SVG support,
- Tramp 2.1,
- isearch in minibuffer history (addictive),
- M-x kill-matching-buffers (but you should use Ibuffer anyway),
- mb-depth.el,
- other minor things.

Hi Romain
Does the emacs-snapshot branch include support for Xft? If not, is it possible to include it?
Thanks.
The Xft code is only on the emacs-unicode branch, not in the trunk. So no, emacs-snapshot does not include it, but it will eventually when the unicode branch is merged in the trunk.
Hello.
I'm using a self compiled version of emacs-snapshot with Timo Savola patches to embed the emacs frame. Do you know if these patches make their way to emacs cvs ?
David: no, I don't think they have.
Hi, Romain
will the next snapshot have multi-tty support? I hear that it has entered CVS HEAD.
Yes, the next snapshot will include the multi-tty feature!
