I would personally advise against this way forward. I'd like to suggest an alternative: * Gather folks interested in this (you should be able to see some from this thread). Perhaps announce that you are forming a group to look into this. * Get together and write up a wiki page / detailed proposal, answering: - How would this work? - What resources would you need? - What impact does it have on maintainers? users? release engineering? - Would this work alongside the current setup? Or would it be one or the other? - Try and answer questions raised by folks in this thread. - Try and list advantages. Why would we want to do this? what does it get us? * Post again once you have details and ask for more feedback. * Repeat cycle until you find it's ready and then ask fesco to take a look. Just a suggestion... kevin
