Can we please free ourselves from the burden/mentality of a &quot;svn trunk&quot; 
workflow?
If we put strict borders around the definition of our &quot;community&quot;, these 
borders tend to shring inwards.

There cannot be anything like &quot;package C is forbidden from Mageia&quot;, as long as 
we embrace an 'open' attitude towards contributions. Let them build it, debug 
it, maintain it and /host/ it in 3rd party repos. You can still reply &quot;we're 
sorry, but don't have the resources to support it in the long run. So it won't 
hit the standard repos+releases yet.&quot; . Perfectly acceptable IMO.

And, who knows, even the build of some exotic package could trigger a series 
of bugs or dependencies that will return valuable feedback to the &quot;core&quot; 
packages.
