Link to the most popular implementation for Emacs #392

Closed tarsius closed 4 years ago

tarsius commented 5 years ago

Several solarized implementations (and a fork) exist for Emacs: http://www.melpa.org/#/?q=solar&sort=downloads&asc=false

The implementation that this repository used to link to is the least popular among those. Link to the most popular one instead. I am a bit surprised that it is not at least a magnitude more popular than the second most popular one, but it is much more actively maintained (68 vs 6 contributors, 601 vs 194 commits).

This also removes the bundled copy of the the older implementation without bundling a copy of the newer implementation. It seems those bundled copies are not getting updated and I don't volunteer to do it, so it seems better to just link to the up-to-date standalone repository.

I have contacted the maintainers of the other implementations, last here: https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/5780 (which also provides some background information in case you are interested). @sellout, the author of the implementation previously linked to, never replied.

Friendly ping!

Closing because this repository is not maintained anymore.
