I have a small preference for Nicolas' approach, as the dotted lines feel a bit more readable than the three columns. I'll let you integrate my suggestion on adding the line about listing ELPA packages when/where you see fit. About the vertical space in the splash screen: here (emacs-28.0.50) the number of text lines in the splash screen is 15 by default and 18 with the message about auto-saved files. Perhaps we can agree to keep this number of lines below 20 and adapt the height of the logo when (20 lines + current logo's height) does not fit into Emacs startup height? -- Bastien
