Re: Code for cond*

["Alfred M. Szmidt" <ams@gnu.org>]

ELPA is part of Emacs, suggesting it for addition of things is fair
game.  You make good arguments that it might make something "obscure",
there are other arguments in favor of why ELPA might not be a good
place (e.g., Alan had once regarding bootstrapping where PCOND is
slightly trickier than COND*).  But it is a technical suggestion, and
one that is perfectly valid -- Eli, Richard, or other Emacs
maintainers are quite capable of deciding what to do on the topic.

That some people clamour to whatever sillyness, is also really not a
problem -- again, the Emacs maintainers are quite capable on figuring
out or asking questions.

One nice thing about Emacs is that it is quite easy to get things into
Emacs, so I think you're worrying too much about the situation.
