I was talking about repositories, not a single monolithic repository: you are free to use cvs, svn, monotone, bzr, darcs or whatever else you prefer. If every developer would use a common server for his repositories, it would be easier for the others to find and use them. (...)
I think we've two important points here: * Are you working on the package foo ? In a scenario when anybody or tons of people can upload the package foo, it's necessary to tag somewhere that you're working on the package foo. Groups do it using IRC or wiki articles today. We could do it using the NEWS in the PTS. It won't break the current groups approach since these groups can point the wiki articles or irc channels for coordination there. * Where are you working on the package foo ? You could send the vcs information about the package to the PTS that would list it in the web or answer it through a mail query. No central repository of any vcs is required. regards, -- stratus
