I really like that the important contribs are included in my orgmode GIT checkout. It would make it harder to _start_ with orgmode if the repo woud be splitted. May be your suggestions are obvious for hard-core emacsers. But nowadays I *think* there are a lot of orgmode users who use emacs just because of orgmode. Even ELPA is no obvious choice if you mix the package manager of your beloved distro with it. For me as a user the current state of affairs works as expected. So, please, only change it if you feel it is a must. Detlef
