This library is mostly used to extracts metadata from packages and save it for future use by e.g. a package manager. Most of the code used to generate the mirrors webpage can be found in the accompanying libary `elm-org.el' which might eventually be replaced by a more dynamic webpage. That's what it looks like. Thoughts follow later. -- Jonas
