Is there any documentation for the publishing of new Julia packages? I couldn’t find anything. Thanks!

“Publishing” in the narrow sense is just making your package _public_ — upload to Github, write [docs](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl), and you are done.

If you want to _register_ a package, [attobot](https://github.com/attobot/attobot) is the solution at the moment.

@Tamas_Papp thank you!

Does anybody know what’s the official view on the matter? Is this a workaround until PkgDev is updated? Or is this the right way and will stay like this for the foreseeable future?
