Re: package meta-faq/overview?

I'm thinking that a meta-faq/overview would be complementary to the above (except, perhaps, for the elispPackages). I'm thinking that the meta-faq/overview would have: * A short description of each sub-package (one sentence to a couple of paragraphs). Ideally, this should also give reasons why one would want to use a given sub-package. Should the maintainer be mentioned here, also? * A simple pointer to where to get the packages (perhaps, a pointer to an XEmacs web page?). * A pointer to the XEmacs package installation web page (http://www.dk.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html). * Should the ftp contrib directory be mentioned? It hasn't been updated in years. * A pointer to other archives (e.g., ohio-state or wherever it is these days). -- Darryl Okahata darrylo(a)soco.agilent.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Agilent Technologies, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.
