Raman, with due respect to your tremendous efforts on Emacspeak, the way that
non-Core packages are distributed should not have a bearing on what does and
does not go into Core; otherwise, we would be making our choices based on
undefinable criteria, like which packages are the most popular.

If a package is in ELPA, it can just as easily download its dependencies as
itself; if it is not in ELPA, it is outside the scope of this discussion.
