The v0.5.0 submission — the package's first — was approved on 08 Sep 2026 after sitting in human review since May.

CLAUDE.md told the next reader not to dispatch chocolatey.yml. That is now wrong, and left as-is the next release would have silently skipped the mirror.

Recorded rather than deleted, because two facts from that first submission are reusable:

  • A first submission to a new package id goes to human review and can take months. Only the first — later versions from a maintainer with an approved package auto-verify. That is a release-planning fact for any future package id.
  • Don't back-fill 0.6.0/0.7.0. Only the newest version matters to choco install; go straight to the current tag.

It also explains the download counter (44): the package spent its whole life unlisted and un-installable without an explicit --version.

The moderator's two points

WebView2 dependency — they raised <dependency id="webview2-runtime" /> and then argued against it themselves, since it forces an install on machines that already ship the runtime (all of Windows 11). Keeping #112's warn-with-symptom-and-remedy approach, which is what they praised. Recorded as a decision so it isn't relitigated.

Licensing — added. licenseUrl already pointed at the repo LICENSE, but the description never said so, so the page didn't read as open source.

The v0.5.0 submission — the package's first — was approved on 08 Sep 2026 after
sitting in human review since May. CLAUDE.md told the next reader not to dispatch
chocolatey.yml, which is now wrong and would have skipped the mirror.

Recorded instead of just deleted, because two things from that first submission
are worth keeping:

  - A first submission to a NEW package id goes to human review and can take
    months. Only the first; later versions from a maintainer with an approved
    package auto-verify. That is a release-planning fact, not trivia.
  - Don't back-fill 0.6.0/0.7.0. Only the newest version matters to
    `choco install`, so go straight to the current tag.

Also explains the download counter: 44 for a package that spent its whole life
unlisted and un-installable without an explicit --version.

The moderator endorsed the #112 WebView2 approach — probe all three EdgeUpdate
keys and warn with a symptom and remedy rather than hard-fail or force-install.
They raised `<dependency id="webview2-runtime" />` and then argued against it
themselves, since it forces an install on machines that already have the runtime
(all of Windows 11). Recorded as a decision so it isn't relitigated.

nuspec: adds the MIT licence line they suggested. licenseUrl already pointed at
the repo LICENSE; the description didn't say so.
