Thank you, I'll do that. Since you replied now, could you update the homepage? http://nschum.de/src/emacs/company-mode/ is number 2 hit in Google, and it's severely outdated: 1) The screencast link is broken. 2) The configuration code block is (mostly?) unnecessary, as long as the user installs from ELPA. And those who don't, usually know all about `add-to-list', `autoload' and `require'. Maybe at least mention that it's not necessary for ELPA installation. 3) The ELPA link leads to Tromey's archive, which has been deprecated for a while. It should go to http://elpa.gnu.org/ instead. 4) The download archive links are bound to become outdated, unless you're willing to give me access to the hosting (which I guess you're not, as this is a personal site). So I suggest linking to http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/company.html instead, it should always have an up-to-date download link. 5) Feedback: I think you'd prefer if people sent bug reports to me directly or to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org, instead of yourself. Speaking of reporting bugs, I generally prefer to use GitHub Issues, but it seems to me there are not many current users, so any of the two options above should be sufficient. Up to you. 6) EmacsWiki link should probably be removed or moved to another section: I visit it very rarely, so users should not expect to receive any developer support here. Alternatively, you can just make it redirect to http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/company.html Cheers, Dmitry
