If there is a more specific Elpa related list, please let me know and/or disregard this. I recently finished the copyright assignment docs with the FSF so I can be a part of the GNU Emacs group. My original intent/interest was to add my color theme found here: https://github.com/ahungry/color-theme-ahungry Into Elpa (I also submitted it to Melpa tonight). I notice that there aren't any other themes in Elpa (or if so, I'm missing them). Is this primarily due to reluctance in assigning copyright to FSF by theme maintainers or a preference by Elpa to keep them out of the base Elpa/Emacs? On a related note, if I want to continue hosting the code at the current URL and also clone it into the Elpa repository, would it be better to do it as an "external" type or a "subtree" type? Thanks in advance, -Matt -- Matthew Carter m@ahungry.com
