I've had a flurry of activity working with emacs, breaking out some things that were previously "Steve stuff" inside my local configuration into real packages.

One thing that I've been very happy with has been "org-people", now on MELPA, which allows contact-management within Emacs via org-mode blocks and properties. It works so well with the native facilities that it's a joy to work on.

I've been learning a lot of new things while I've been expanding it now it has a bigger audience (e.g. "cl-defstruct" was a pleasant surprise).
