I'm sorry but I don't understand this question. We are talking about adding
a gitlab workflow to the existing mailing list workflow so that
gitlab/github users are happier and more prone to contributing. I don't
understand what you are asking about this topic.

Again I don't understand what external packages have to do with the topic.
We are not talking about including external packages to core Emacs.

Kind regards,
