Emacs packaging guideline change of 22nd March 2011 - discussion?

[Jonathan Underwood]

Hi,

I see that the packaging guidelines for Emacs add-ons were changed on
22nd March 2011 this year, but I completely missed any discussion of
this change:

https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Packaging%3AEmacs&action=...

The guideline as it now stands presents a few problems, but before I
go about proposing a fix-up I'd like to find the discussion that led
to this change - any pointers?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Meeting logs for that time period should give more details.  Google tells
me this is the relevant log:

Well, that's quite embarrassing! I had totally forgotten drafting the
change and submitting it to FPC. That explains why it's so badly
written then :) I'll draft something a bit clearer and easier to use
in the next couple of days.
