I have no clue if this is the intention or not but I always find that
the emacs package names are in the format: emacs-FEATURE.  As in I can
just do (load "FEATURE") to load the package and start exploring.  I was
very confused when I first downloaded the package as (load "recutils")
did nothing and I had to do (load "rec-mode").  I realize this
convention isn't written down anywhere but I think maybe it should be
because it's very helpful to me personally.

The location means very little to me.  If I was just editing the package
instead of replacing it I wouldn't have moved it.
