Why don't you pull it from marmalade instead? Now I have to support MELPA because people won't use marmalade?
Hmm, yes, I hadn't considered that. Maybe that wasn't that subtle.
I stopped pulling from marmalade a while back because it wasn't very stable, which was giving me during CI. I could try turning it on again, but I don't like having both MELPA and Marmalade on at the same time, because I do not understand how package.el decided which one to get a package from. In this case, though, it should be safe, and I could avoid using MELPA (I like stable me!). Having said all of that, release tags are convienient and useful aside from MELPA-stable.
Actually, at the moment, I don't understand where the dependency on noflet comes from with my package; it used to work, so someones changed something somewhere!
Anyway, I'll close this issue. Nice if you add them, if not I can survive!
melpa-stable is small compared to marmalade. all the stability issues with marmalade are gone. it's https. what's not to like.
As a user? Nothing at all. It's nice. As a developer, also nothing. But, melpa is easier. I push to git, I tag my releases anyway. Everything follows from that. Contributing the recipe is harder for MELPA than the first upload to marmalade (although easier than getting stuff into ELPA).
Can you add tags to release please, so that it works with MELPA-Stable
