Subject: [ELPA] Package cleanup
Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2022 02:43:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220329004337.nzeew6dlyqxm7wat@Ergus> (raw)

Hi:

Just a question. Did you finally agreed about the package
obsoletion/removal procedure for ELPA?

It seems there are some packages there which haven't received any update
in a very long time (>5 years).  Maybe there is a way to put them is a
sort of obsolete/archived/unmaintained state... In order to keep them,
but at least not confuse the new users, or wrongly suggest to use them.

I have found some packages that doesn't even work or rely on some
features that were obsoleted or removed.

Best,
Ergus.
