However, would it be possible to also add packages to ELPA that's introduced in later Emacs versions? E.g. I'm currently on my distribution-packaged version of Emacs 25, but would really like to use the mhtml-mode introduced in Emacs 26. Wouldn't it make sense to add these type of packages in ELPA as well for all the older Emacs versions out there? Best regards, /Jakob
