I see that I was overreacting, because of my frustration in the other thread. So let me clarify that the `make relint` target is not that important: very few people will want to run such an Emacs-wide make target (more interesting will be to run it occasionally on your own packages, like checkdoc). So the only part that matters is to include the package in GNU ELPA. Whether we also add a `make relint` target is of no consequence. Stefan
