<br>
I have a package for elementary cellular automata which I have
successfully created, complete with docs, tested locally,
pushed to github and then test installed. Thanks a lot for the
documentation on this process, it was very clear.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately I must admit I was sorely lost in figuring out
the info.rkt file that would describe this package in some
kind of meaningful way. I'd like to put this up on the package
list for others to play with but what should I be sure I have
in my info.rkt file before I do so? Are there specific fields
that I should consider a minimum that aren't mentioned in
"Getting Started with Packages"?<br>

You can look at these, although some are specific to the old package
system, PLaneT, and might not have an effect in the new package
system:<br>

If you were using McFly, it would automatically create a template
"info.rkt" for you with most everything in it, or programmatically
update your existing "info.rkt" with useful variables that you
missed (and then McFly incorporates some of this information into
standard places in your documentation, so that you only have to
specify it in one place, in "info.rkt"):<br>
