I agree. What I would like, though is a kind of integration that makes it
"dead easy" to enhance the stable core by the beta jedmodes packages. I
think particularly about including home-lib.sl into the distribution, so it
is in the standard library path and can be activated by a simple
require("home-lib") in .jedrc.

On the other side, I am working on improvement installation requirements and
usage documentation for my jedmodes. Ideas and suggestions are welcome.

(A major step is achieved with the generation of online-help texts by
make-ini.sl, but this is unfortunately not sufficiently tested yet.)
