Thank you for putting this together!

IMHO (c) makes the most sense, as that seems like an appropriate place
for it.  If not, then (d) and we can just remember to point to it in the
wiki.  But the ideal place for it to be findable from would be
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/, which is what I assume you mean by (c).

I don't have edit rights on (c), as far as I know, so I hope someone
who does agrees with this.
