I don't know. The maintainer has to want to make it a module and most
maintainers are still waiting for time, energy and the equivalent of 'hand
over hand' training materials to know how to make them without breaking
their existing workflows (or to learn new ones). [The fact that from many
conversations, a number of core maintainers do not even use mock to build
their packages locally says that we are needing to start training at a much
lower level than 'here is how to make a module'.]

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Flame wars in
sci.astro.orion. I have seen SPAM filters overload because of Godwin's Law.
All those moments will be lost in time... like posts on  BBS... time to
reboot.
