question: can this be put on melpa? #1

Open rorokimdim opened 1 year ago

rorokimdim commented 1 year ago

Is it possible to make this available in melpa ? (https://melpa.org/)

I want to try writing a new package that depends on this.

i've not written an emacs package before so may be there is a way around it.

Would you be interested in taking ownership of this package, Amit? Even though the package is practically finalized and frozen, I don't have time to maintain it to the degree required for MELPA. If yes, I'll archive my repository with a link to your fork as the continuation.

Maintenance note: "make check" compiles the source so you can quickly spot compiler diagnostics, and then runs the tests so you can verify it still works correctly (on new Emacs releases, etc.).

hey thanks, I'm willing to give it a shot. So far I've not published anything on melpa so might take me a while to figure it out.

i am writing this https://github.com/rorokimdim/bb-pod, in which i just copied over your code for now (and dumbed down some bits i didn't immediately understand).

Once I have something useful I can look into publishing this repository on melpa.

i submitted a PR on melpa https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/8521 , perhaps prematurely.

i can try to address any issues the reviewers bring up
