I want it to be a source archive.

The org-pkg.el file is nowadays built by the GNU ELPA scripts (there's
even a special exception in this script specifically for Org, which is
the only package where this file is not auto-built yet).

What is the "version" file?

Can you give further details on this extra autoload file?

Right, the doc-generation is a step that's clearly lacking in the
current GNU ELPA scripts.
