-the content visible at https://elpa.gnu.org/packages.
+That leaves the elpa/packages directory empty; you must check out the
+ones you want.
 
-A new package is released as soon as the "version number" of that package is
-changed.  So you can use 'elpa' to work on a package without fear of releasing
-those changes prematurely.  And once the code is ready, just bump the
-version number to make a new release of the package.
+If you wish to check out all the packages into the packages directory,
+you can run the command:
