It seems like the > status is that we need someone to volunteer to write up the scripts. > Hi, Stefan, As a *user*, I like seeing the number of downloads on MELPA as a (very crude) gauge of how much scrutiny a package has received. Especially before I contributed something to MELPA and knew they do actually review the code of packages before they go on there. What I'd love to see is some measure of the number of users a package has in the "list-packages" mode. Is this feature request just to calculate the statistics for the developers, or does it include any changes to package.el to display them to potential users? Thanks, Lynn
