I think the only proposal on the table that has real chances to be
acceptable by most of us is to split ELPA into two, whether internally
(i.e. separate directories or something similar) or externally (i.e. 2
different repositories).  If there's no significant opposition to
this, I hope we can start actually doing that.  Then s.el, dash.el,
and other similar packages can be put in the "non-core" part of ELPA
without any significant changes.
