Can't remove Emacs as "cask emacs is not installed"
(require 'package) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t) (package-initialize) (package-install 'use-package) (use-package exec-path-from-shell :ensure t :config (exec-path-from-shell-initialize)))

Trying to understand the difference between GNU ELPA and NonGNU ELPA. Plz help.
MELPA is definitely the biggest package archive, probably mostly on account of the lower barrier to entry compared to GNU ELPA (maybe the difference would have been less pronounced if NonGNU ELPA had been there from the beginning, but one can only speculate). MELPA has its own requirements for packages, but indeed copyright assignment to the FSF is not one of them.

is there like a resource where I can learn how to create an elisp project
I would suggest to start at reading the manual first. Then I would recommend reading the Melpa guidance, even if you do not plan to contribute your package to Melpa, since it contains very useful info about linting, writing your code etc.

melpa.org blacklisted ?
The mxtoolbox link checks for SMTP blacklisting.. People won't be able to send mail from host with the IP address 178.128.185.1(which is the melpa.org webserver, not their mailserver, so everything's fine there).

Elisp project best practices
Observe that package.el compile files when they are installed, and they are not compiled in any particular order (actually whatever directory-files returns, which is what OS returns). So if you have multiple files that depend on each other, it is something to think of. There are also some guidelines on how to structure your project on Melpa.

How to manually install emacs packages? I am unable to acess github
The packages available via the built-in package manager once configured do not come from GitHub though they may be developed there. They come from GNU ELPA NonGNU ELPA and MELPA. You would still need internet access though.

Use Portage instead of package.el for managing Emacs packages
To install elisp packages system-wide under the Portage control you can use gs-elpa. Read layman documentation before using it, as gs-elpa represents ELPA repositories as g-sorcery overlays. It currently supports 4 repositories: gnu-elpa, marmalade, melpa and melpa-stable.

melpa mirror on air-gapped network
I run emacs at work on a system that does not access the internet, so I cannot utilize the package interface that pulls directly from melpa (and elpa etc). Years ago, someone copied a version of melpa into a local directory on the air-gapped server. In my init.el, I setq package-archive to something like (("local-melpa" . "/path/to/the/melpa/dir")) so that it points to this local directory. I'm wondering if there is a tool to facilitate this sort of mirroring? I would like to update my packages on this air-gapped network. I am able to copy files onto the system from a less restricted workstation with internet access. Is it just a matter of unzipping the melpa repo and pointing package-archive to the fresh melpa directory?

Emacs *Network Security Manager* reporting 'certificate has expired' that...hasn't.
I get similar connection-security messages when attempting to connect to the package archive at https://elpa.nongnu.org/ —again, in both *Package* and in *eww*—while elpa.gnu.org seems to be just flat out nonresponsive. However, other https sites including https://duckduckgo.com/about and https://twitter.com work just fine.

Requests for packages to add to NonGNU ELPA?
I am working on adding more packages to NonGNU ELPA, the new package archive enabled by default from Emacs 28 onwards. Compared to GNU ELPA, there is no need for a copyright assignment (the only requirement is that packages do not endorse non-free software, but that is the case for most Emacs-related software to begin with).
