Hello, Well, i am not formally proposing it, it is just an idea... But i agree on the fact, it is not a good idea to make it depend on svn... Well, by the way, maybe this thread rely on a thing i don't have explain : i am not against arch or svn, or whatever, i only stat that it is a good thing to have a common place to do the work. Well of course, debian tools / architecture by itself should be sufficient, but i was thinking of something more easy to do without needing to upload things ( ie not NMU ). It is only a personnal case : i am not a DD and i cannot upload, so every package i build / correct / break ( yeah i also break things ) need to have a sponsor etc... With a common place, which i can have access it is simpler to work. It is just a statement of my personnal opinion... Maybe when -- if -- i will be a DD, i won't have the same view.
