Did it affect you > negatively in any way? No, I just cannot mirror it on the Emacsmirror, but that does not really matter because I also could not mirror any other package which uses `provide-me'. I extract metadata for all mirrored packages, including the provided features, and the respective code does not support `provide-me'. I don't intend to support that form until at least halve a dozen packages use it.
