Hi Fabien, Your script looks very nice! This definitely saves many people some work in writing their own checks. We're trying to retire the contrib/ directory, since there are several ways of hosting open source add-on scripts elsewhere these days. This leaves the tools/ directory, but this can only contain APLv2 licenced code. If you're willing to relience from GPLv3 to APLv2, I see no problem adding your script somewhere under the tools/hook-scripts/ directory. If you're unwilling to change the licence, we can endorse your script by recommending it to users but we cannot ship it in Subversion releases.
