I understand that in Emacs 25 Org, Company, Gnus, CEDET and maybe a couple of other packages will move to GNU ELPA and thus separate release channels (these packages will still be bundled with Emacs). This means we can push out new versions easily, making more frequent releases more attractive. Again, if you want to help out with preparing releases just let the list and Bastien now. —Rasmus -- I feel emotional landscapes they puzzle me
