There are /some/ standards that I want to follow in order to give
this package repository a more tilde-like or grassroots-style
feel. Mostly this means:
- - Don't host your package on github.com or gitlab.com
- Don't depend on melpa (prefer if you depend just on packages from
[[https://gnu.elpa.org][GNU elpa]] but nonGNU is fine). The reason for this is that melpa
is *HUGE*. You can seriously improve update time if you don't
refresh melpa automatically, and it is not installed by default
on an emacs system.
-** This all sounds awfully strict
- While I would like the non-github requirement, if you really,
- /really/ have to use melpa, there is a quelpa package in this
- repository for you as a safeguard. I just strongly advise against
- using it since quelpa /does/ pull down the entire melpa recipe
- archive, which, again, is big.
+ - That's it! there used to be other requirements but they were just dumb.
