Thanks for the patches.

Could you put the home-page just before the synopsis as commonly done
in other package definitions?

Please make this "@code{emacs-xelb} is a pure Emacs Lisp implementation
of ...". No need to repeat "X protocol Emacs Lisp Binding" as it is
already mentioned in the synopsis. Expand Elisp -> Emacs Lisp.

Remove "some". It makes the whole sentence sound vague.

Same about home-page.

Append "-checkout" at the end of file-name just like you did for
emacs-xelb.

LGTM, otherwise!
