There were many suggestions in this thread.  I tried to get them all
into one patch, and pushed them to emacs-30 as commit 6701866be4d.

Feel free to make any appropriate tweaks or adjustments.

Severity: wishlist

See the attached patch, which advertises (Non-)GNU ELPA a bit more in
the manual.  This would help make those archives more well-known and
attractive to users and package developers.

Thoughts?
