same for me . havent grok everything yet. but thats a big steps between  a
language, and an architecture...,
probably the latter is not so easy to explain or justify, as it rely on a lot

that was in fact my point.

on mandrake 7.1/7.2 and +, the skeletons deosnt works.
 i got the message symbol's fnction definition is void: deactivate-mark.
(working in previous build)

i suspect its an emacs packaing issue, but in case somebody knows something

also , what is this erlang-apwiz.el in r7b ?
any nice wizardry ?
