[1][2] As far as I know, Launchpad is a server, not a software release, so that question is not directly relevant. The real question about Launchpad is whether we would want to specifically encourage its use in this way. I don't see a reason to do that. Indeed, emacswiki.org would be the natural first choice of site to do that with. It is not clear to me that this is desirable at all -- it raises complex issues.
