This comment should be updated:

https://github.com/gap-packages/example/blob/master/src/hellod.c has a prototype of a HELLO_WORLD example implemented as a kernel module. It has to be checked, completed, added to the test and documented.

see gap-system/gap#484

We now permit both of these to be false for contributors who are neither authors nor maintainers. This is useful to give credits to contributors who are in neither of the two categories. The comment should be updated to explain that.

This shows that again we managed to change ValidatePackageInfo without updating the sample PackageInfo.g file :(

Just to declare my further plans: use https://github.com/fingolfin/PackageMaker by @fingolfin to have a GitHub pages based Example package's website.

As in https://github.com/gap-system/gap/blob/master/.github/workflows/CI.yml, rather than trying to cancel PR builds on a pushed branch, as we do here currently...

Convert the text to markdown so GitHub will render it automatically and nicer.

After gap-system/gap#484 has been merged, this package will not have guidelines. It will be a mock package which should demonstrate how to apply those guidelines. I think it should be made closer to look like what https://github.com/gap-system/PackageMaker would create, and it should demonstrate how to use Travis CI and CodeCov to run regression tests and get code coverage reports. That will increase its value, as it will demonstrate to PackageMaker users where to go from the stub package that PackageMaker will produce for them, and show to package authors how to set up CI and code coverage tools.
