+## note 1
+`useHead` should ideally be used as the default but lots of packages (e.g. `chronos`)
+don't have release tags (or have really old ones compared to HEAD), making it
+impossible to test them reliably here.
+
+packages listed here should ideally have regularly updated release tags, so that:
+* we're testing recent versions of the package
+* the version that's tested is stable enough even if HEAD may occasionally break
+
+## note 2: D20210308T165435:here
+nimble packages should be testable as follows:
+git clone $url $dir && cd $dir
+NIMBLE_DIR=$TMP_NIMBLE_DIR XDG_CONFIG_HOME= nimble install --depsOnly -y
+NIMBLE_DIR=$TMP_NIMBLE_DIR XDG_CONFIG_HOME= nimble test
+
+if this fails (e.g. nimcrypto), it could be because a package lacks a `tests/nim.cfg` with `--path:..`,
+so the above commands would've worked by accident with `nimble install` but not with `nimble install --depsOnly`.
+When this is the case, a workaround is to test this package here by adding `--path:$srcDir` on the test `cmd`.

+    ## are reminded about those failures without making CI fail for unrelated PRs.
