Hello Yoni

Since `tq' has been part of Emacs for 24 years, I don't think there is
any good reason to track it in Emms' repository also. ;-)

Please consider removing it.

Additionally you should change the maintainer in the library headers. I
think I have contacted Jorgen at least twice about this issue already,
only to be told that he isn't involved with the project anymore and
hasn't been for years.

Thanks,
Jonas

Anyone have an issue with trying to remove tq from emms?

No. AFAIK, the current Org version targets 24.3. The next will target a
later version. I think we shouldn’t carry around too much "legacy" code.

Let’s drop it if possible.

Dropped, and it didn't break my emms-mpd. However, the only reason I
keep an mpd server working in the house is to test it's emms
functionality... so Your Milage = My Milage + Epsilon
