Are we providing packages that include only Info manuals, which document stuff that is not specific to Emacs? Because I don't see how it would be a good idea to have this as an ELPA package. But if we do accept such packages on ELPA, then I have 2 additional similar suggestions: . Git manual in Info format . Python 3 manual in Info format > Current Package name, proposed for ELPA: c-intro-and-ref > This matches the existing manual distribution. > Perhaps a name such as: gnu-c-manual That'd be wrong, since this manual doesn't describe GNU C, it describes the C language in general. (There's a separate GNU C manual, btw.)
