Is there a plan to also distribute Emacs on F-Droid?

Yes, but IIRC their packagers were dragging their feet.

I see from https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/2871 that F-Droid are 
in need of a new maintainer for their Emacs package.


I notice that F-Droid is able to automatically build packages when a new Git 
tag is made.  However, in order to do that, it needs to be given an integer 
version number (called a version code; 
https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/versioning#versioningsettings).  
It can look for that either in the name of a Git tag, by searching in a file 
within Git, or by fetching some data over HTTP 
(https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Build_Metadata_Reference/#UpdateCheckData).

Currently, this is hard-coded to 30 in java/AndroidManifest.xml.in, but 
something like 300093000 would be needed (for 30.0.93).  Could we set that for 
them?
