Thank you.

This version is not accurate. The ".el" file mentions 0.1.3, but I think
we should use Github versioning, i.e., there is no versioning at all, so
we should do the commit + revision dance again, and use "0.1.3" as the
base of the version string.

This should go in a dedicated variable.

Nitpick: I usually put `base32' on the same line as the string.

Nitpick: Emacs build system uses `propagated-inputs', although this is
the same.

Nitpick: `build-system' is usually above

The description must be a full sentence.

The license looks wrong. I see GPL3+ in this package.

Could you send an updated patch?
