That's certainly appreciated. ;P I think what we have now is a good compromise. We continue to use the existing emacsorphanage for org-related packages, which previously were maintained on github anyway. If more org-related packages are abandoned and they already use github, then I will continue to suggest to their maintainers to transfer them to the emacsorphanage, but let you know about it. For ideological reasons, packages shouldn't be *moved to* github, but if they are already there, it seems okay to keep them there a bit longer. Packages that need a new home and previously were maintained somewhere other than github, should probably be hosted on https://git.sr.ht/~bzg for now. >> One thing we may do though is letting him know about >> https://orgmode.org/worg/org-orphanage.html - he may contact us or use >> GitHub mentions, and he may let us know when a new Org-related package >> lands on his repo. Will do. Jonas
