Hi Nicholas,

I just uploaded persist-el. Thank you and sorry for the delay. This was my 
first sponsorship and I also had to setup a new laptop. I'm just waiting for 
the confirmation mail for the upload.

There are a few nitpicks and I'd be grateful if you could track them, e.g. in 
bugs.d.o after the package enters the archive:

- It's a pity that we can not include the info file due to the license. Could 
you ask upstream to consider another license?
- As long as the doc is not included, I think you don't need to build depend on 
texinfo.
- If upstream also uses Git, I prefer to track upstreams master branch as 
upstream branch in the packaging repo. You could still merge their branch in 
your existing repo or restart the repo?
- Lintian also had two nitpicks, see below. I'm guilty of the "wrong" section 
myself for elpa-editorconfig. What is the teams stand on this?

Cheers, Thomas
