No, I'm still working on it.  This is my main focus currently, and I
expect that the new manual will take at least another week to finish at
the current rate..

Most of the things that needed transferring from README.md are already
done.  But there hasn't been much progress since my last update, as I've
focused on the merge in the last week or so.

There was none indeed, but on the new branch feature/use-package
(replacing scratch/use-package), you can now find it announced in NEWS.

OK, thanks.

This is fixed on feature/use-package.
