1. project.el and Org is already included, even developed in Emacs?

2. Are we talking about GNU ELPA or both NonGNU ELPA and GNU ELPA.
   Because fro what I understand, Magit would require a copyright

Perhaps we can take a look at the results of the Emacs Survey, when that
comes out later this month and collect a list of popular contenders?
