Suggestions about cask

Currently, writing an incorrect Cask file (missing paren, for example) gives a not very helpful message.

Agreed. Unfortunately we don't get detailed errors from the Emacs Lisp parser, but I've tried my best to recover some error information, at least for the case of unbalanced parenthesis, see #77.

Plus, the new syntax (source melpa) is handy but the command (source "melpa") should also be valid as it is more consistent with other statements of the DSL.

I disagree :) The current source syntax clearly separates between known built-in sources which are referred to via symbol names, and named sources, which are referred to with strings. I don't want to change that.

Me too. A string could indicate anything, while a symbol means something special. It's like this in many languages, for example Ruby.

Hum, ok, that makes sense! +1 for the improved error reporting! ;)
