The bleeding edge version is expected to be somewhat unstable, and exposing it via ELPA will lead to foot-shooting incidents. On the other hand, it would be nice to have more regular releases from master to maint. AFAIK the last one was a year and a half ago (Org 8.2). However, this has traditionally required a lot of effort from Bastien and others, so it=E2=80=99s not a simple case of =E2=80=9Cwishing w= ill make it so=E2=80=9D. -- Aaron Ecay
