Hi Guix, Hi Pierre,

I apologize for my delay, the last few weeks were quite busy :-/.

That's OK by me!

I'm not exactly sure about this. Currently, most Neovim users 
install their grammars through the installer included in 
https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter. That ensures 
the user gets the version that is ABI compatible with 
nvim-treesitter. That makes me uncertain if we could use the same 
grammar packages for Neovim and Emacs, at least for now.

I'm not a very experienced packager myself, but from what I saw in 
your patch, it seems rather unnecessary, as the grammar packages 
are very simple.
