Subject: bug#19296: [PATCH] Package archives now have priorities.
Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2014 14:27:12 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]

IOW, it creates a new MELPA problem.

> This can be overridden manually by the user.

IOW, MELPA users will be made to jump through additional hoops.

And why are we choosing to do this to the greatest number of
users and for the greatest number of packages?  (MELPA has
more users, more packages, and more downloads.)
