I have created this tiny (and my first) little package, which converts **pocket-reader.el** entries into **org-roam** files: [pocket-reader-org-roam-capture](https://github.com/christofdamian/pocket-reader-org-roam-capture)

I submitted it to melpa and the nice [nice reviewer made some valid points](https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/7366#issuecomment-766455008)

Clearly `org-roam-capture--capture` is an internal function and the next release might remove it, but maybe there is also a more stable interface to use. I imagine that other people might find it useful.  
Maybe even with an easier way to pass the templates.

And currently it is a very simple function. I already plan to move the template setting to a configuration option again.

So my main question is: should I bother or just leave it in my repo for people to copy?

Yeah, I’ll need to think more about what functions should be exposed for capture.

I intend to start a contrib section, been meaning to add some way to pull down annotations from hypothes.is as well.

Nice. So I am going to remove my request from melpa and see what the future brings.
