Yes.

Also, we currently build a new ELPA package each day, resulting in
having a new ELPA version every day.  We should have a new ELPA version
each time there is a commit in maint, not every day.  I'll see with
Jason if we can install this.

Looks fine to me.

Publishing new packages only when maint has been changed will already
reduce some possible confusion, because each org-YYYYMMDD.tar package
will correspond to the same version.
