The repository field could be constructed as a mapping:

   repository:

     location:
:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/module-build

or possibly some type of (icky) compound field:

   repository: [svn] https://svn.versiondude.net/randys/CPAN-Metadata

I think it would be good to keep the field as a URL. Why does it have to
actually give the direct access point. Why could it not be a link to a
page that gives details about the repository.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too. For a mailing list, for example, you don't want to give a mailto: URL or something, you want to point to an info page. Probably the same thing is true with repositories.

But in the case of Ilya for example, there IS no webpage, and his email address IS the only support channel.
