Hi,
Since I use multiple computers I'd like to cdlatex in GNU ELPA. An
outdated version is currently on Marmelade, but I think that version
doesn't work with current Org (v4.0 vs. v4.6). Also, cdlatex deserves
to be in GNU ELPA IMO.
There's this snip in cdlatex.el:
;; CDLaTeX requires texmathp.el which is distributed with AUCTeX.
;; Starting with Emacs 21.3, texmathp.el will be part of Emacs.
It seems texmathp never made it to Emacs-core, but AUCTeX is in ELPA
so it could be required.
(On a side note, it says cdlatex.el is part of Emacs, but I have
always had to install it separately. . .)
I have attached a tiny patch that makes cdlatex compatible with ELPA
so that I can just do package-install-from-buffer on the file. I
think this is enough for distributing it via ELPA.

The rest is not essential:
Perhaps AUCTeX is a too heavy dependency which might 'talk' in favor
of distributing textmathp.el separately. However, I'm not sure if
package.el supports some kind of either (i) an "or" statement in
'Package-Requires' or (ii) a 'Package-Provides' for people who have
AUCTeX installed. Of course texmathp.el could be required by AUCTeX,
but that's a bit imposing. . .

If you can mix business and politics wonderful things can happen!
