Emacsmirror as for me not good place for project hosting for
weblogger as:

Many Emacs packages lose when author's home page goes gown.

Public services such as Launchpad, Sourceforge, Google code are
better places for project hosting in case of service availability.
And many developers familiar with their functionality.
