## Source excerpt

Please welcome the new stable version of El-Get, the much awaited version 4.1 has now been branched for your pleasure. It's packed with lots of features to make your life easy, comes with a Info documentation book and even has a logo. That's no joke, I found one, at least: Why El-Get is relevant Emacs 24.1 is the first release that includes package.el, and it even allows the user to setup several sources where to fetch packages. Those sources, such as Marmalade, are hosting lots of third party code for Emacs. package.el makes it easy to install (partly) those software.
