I became a fan of Morten's PPA, which apparently are little apt repositories for single

Hmm, could you please be a little bit more verbose than "little apt repositories"?
I can not see any advantage over official apt repositories or the infrastructure
we have at mentors.d.o.
I'd like to see some PPA adapted for Debian med to
* increase awareness of the use of some packages that are not in popcon
I don't think that popcon is the problem. I think the problem is that
those private repositories aare not on our radar of the Blend tools. This
would be a strong reason against this approach IMHO.
* render quite some packages available to less technical (more biological/medical?) users
IMHO good software deserves to become an official package. I do not
want to support bad quality software. So what is the sense of PPA?
Perhaps I'm missing something???
Kind regards
Andreas.
