Finally.  Thanks for your great effort!

Now, let me ask you a question.  Does the Emacs repository integration
mean that there is a possibility that in future we may lose a version
of ruby-mode.el that works with all reasonably and popularly used
versions of Emacs, because ruby-mode.el may be adjusted or optimized
for each branch with some branch specific features?

If so, that can be a reason to keep such a version of ruby-mode.el in
our repository.  If there is any compatibility policy in Emacs that
eliminates the concern, please let us know.

Regards,
