Subject: Re: [ELPA Submission] OpenDocumentText exporter for Orgmode
Date: Sat, 09 Jul 2011 20:40:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1Qfi4G-0001wf-Mt@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <8762nbxq3t.fsf@stupidchicken.com> (message from Chong Yidong on Sat, 09 Jul 2011 14:31:50 -0400)

    Given that ELPA is the natural term for archives compatible with
    package.el, it does not make sense for us to name our archive something
    completely different---and less descriptive.

There are many natural generic terms for such archives.
ELPA has the problem of being the name of one of them
which is not ours.

If Tom were to rename his to TELPA, the problem would go away.
Would you like to join me in asking him to do this?
