I do understand. But that hopefully does not imply that you want to discourage other people from creating other repositories, or does it? Even when the other repositories are not supported by the FSF they can still be of use for users and can also be used by the FSF to find libraries that are worth to be included (e.g. where the author should be contacted fill out copyright assignments). > We also may want to support or > notion of package quality, tho. =C2=A0Also I find it important that multi= ple > versions of a package can coexist at the same time Yes, I also think that this is desirable. > (within reasonable > feasability constraints: we don't need to handle multiple versions in > a single Emacs sessions).
