I really don't like the idea of a repository of top level projects for  
contrib projects. I think I'd be -1 for having that. Same as we don't  
have a repo of top level sandbox project and a repo of top level  
platform projects.

It would also break our top level project rule which is that projects  
at http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/ are top level projects and have  
associated jira/wiki/etc.

However as I mentioned I'm for being able to graduate from the contrib  
project to the platform project or even to a top level project if we  
want it, but on a case by case basis.

Thanks
