The first step would be to set bounds and some time schedule. The technical decisions should follow from this. My suggestion would be to publish a little article on either a 1/2, 1 or 2-monthly basis*, with three regular sections: * New packages Mentioning and introducing new packages that have been added to GNU and NonGNU ELPA. * Interesting Updates Briefly listing packages that have some major changes that would make it worth taking a look at a package again. * Misc. Section Other irregular points like people suggesting package ideas, co-maintainers needed for packages, news from Emacs/ELPA maintainers or anything else like that. I'd like to create a group on Sourcehut to manage the site and provide a separate mailing list. Ping me if interested. *: Perhaps it doesn't have to be periodic, and we would instead just release a new edition whenever we have enough to post? --=20 Philip Kaludercic
