        The Git repository for the project is now available from [1–2].
        Unless I’ll find something particularly wrong about it (and thus
        decide to rewrite the history) by, say, Friday 20:00 UTC, I
        guess it may be cloned as a GNU ELPA Git repository branch.

        Assuming that I won’t be trying to get the ‘nnmw’ MediaWiki Gnus
        backend to work, I hope to release 0.2 shortly thereafter.

        What are the current development practices for ELPA, BTW?  For
        instance, would it be possible for me to rearrange the order of
        the changes made by the ELPA maintainers while importing into my
        own repository, or to cherry-pick, etc.?
