2010-12-11 in GNU Savannah task #10794: "Submission of Emacs Package
Managers".

Hi.

I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in GNU Savannah.
You can reach the rest Savannah hackers (Staff) in this list:
http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/savannah-hackers-public.

Based solely on the information you provided, I think the project
meets our hosting requirements.  However, I noticed you linked to a
file currently hosted in github.  Please note we don't want to be just
a mirror of files hosted elsewhere.  We provide the space and
resources to host the development of a free software project as a
whole.  In this case a sort of integration metaproject from what I
understand of your description, that's ok too.

I have approved this project.  You will receive an auto-generated
email containing detailed information about the approval.

Regards and thanks for your interest in free software, especially
GNU Emacs.

Registration Details


  • Name: Emacs Package Managers
  • System Name:  emacs-pms
  • Type: non-GNU software & documentation
  • License: GNU General Public License v2 or later (Most if not all of these projects contain a GPL notice in the library headers.


Checklist notes:
- There are no media files at least in my pm
- I publish no tarballs)




Description:

Many people are working on package managers to install Emacs packages. However these people do not talk much with each other. I would like to change that by providing a mailing list where we can exchange ideas and join forces.

So initially this project will mainly be used for the mailing list feature but could also be used to publish design documents once we get there.

I would be good if we could use a free software solution to have our discussions.

Here is a list of pms whose authors I want to invite once this project has been setup: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryPackaging


Other Software Required:

This applies to my pm. (This project will be for discussions and design documents thought)

emacs GPL-3 http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/
git GPL-2 http://git-scm.com/



Other Comments:

If you decide not to accept this application maybe you know of a service using free software that only offers the required mailing list feature.

I could not find such a thing. Search results are completely cluttered with "free this" "free that".

There is no release yet but I will link to a file.
