I'll do so in a few minutes.

It is solid, but before it should be used by millions of people, the
client-id "tst" has to be replaced with a valid id for emms. I requested
one at last.fm, but till now I didn't get any reply.

I think the interface is stable.

  User Variables:
    - `emms-lastfm-username'
    - `emms-lastfm-password'

  Functions:
    - `emms-lastfm-activate' to activate/deactivate

The only things I want to change/enhance are under the hood and won't
affect the interface:

  - make the variables customizable
  - better error handling
  - don't "forget" the current song, if you pause it

Yep, I'll do so. Is this the right form?
