As a mirror manager I say yes: I'll discuss with sys-admin team about
how we can setup this, with a per user disk space limit (to avoid
issue).
From a project point of view it is veey different. The mirror tree is
what some people will see about Mageia and I do think:
- people content must be related to mageia
- everything that can be included in the distrib must provide as RPMs
using BS
- people content must respect our policies.
In a nutshell: this must be discuss. Having a people is at time just an
idea, but it solve a need I had in mandriva to provide some rpms for
testing purpose.

</I>
I don't know any process to deny someone to push hdlists and rpms.
However I don't think it is a good idea to use this space as an
alternative to oficial mageia. The risk is to confuse people.
Also, I'd like to notice this space is not a way to provide your own
project, there is platform for that (sourceforge, zarb, gnu, etc...)
