Hi Florian,

 > I'm using emacs and I'd also like to see prerelease versions of 24 in Nix.

if you know how to update 'emacsSnapshot' appropriately, then please go
right ahead. I'm in favor of having the latest Emacs in nixpkgs, too. The
continuous integration provided by the Hydra channel Ludo pointed out is
great, but it's a different thing and quite orthogonal to nixpkgs.


 > I'm happy to use and help in maintainting the prerelease expression.

Thank you, that is very much appreciated.

Take care,
Peter
