Re: [PATCH] Add buffer-local setting to request specific ESS process/session name (was: [PATCH] Set Python shell in Org edit buffer)

[Sparapani, Rodney]

Hi Idor:

 

I have never had much success with either MELPA or ELPA.  Something about

my TLS setup that I have not figured how to fix.  But, I did receive an email that

we are available at ELPA too (however, I can’t test the veracity of that myself). 

See the ESS-help thread here….

Noted. I did not know that ESS is distributed via MELPA.
I am wondering why not ELPA/non-GNU ELPA - ELPA is built-in and users
can simply M-x package-install packages from ELPA repositories.

That's up to you to decide if ESS is in stable state or not.
You may find https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orgmode.org/worg/org-maintenance.html*release-types__;Iw!!H8mHWRdzp34!9qd7lXuuGaLyWEAPOcHUmf_Fr_oYuyym5rkIQSSfGycheI8pfc2DqZqFLvG8jwINxn5hSssSSxjLZi_mEg$
useful to see how Org mode handles releases.
