However, we need to be careful about disk space too. I guess the

users can create other repositories we need to be more careful. I
don't think it is the intention that OOK becomes a public repository
host. Perhaps we can restrict each user to have one repository
'kallithea' and nothing else.

With one kallithea-incoming, this problem does not exist.
Mads, Andrew, what is your view?

Hosting of code from open source contributors requires some continous amount of work and resources. Both for establishing trust and for cleaning up when rogue players abuse the system anyway. But it can be done, assuming we want to do it and establish a realistic process and tooling.

Also, Kallithea is mainly used internally inside organisations. It has not been optimized for hosting open source projects with "random" contributors. I think some of the short-comings are quite obvious - we don't need dogfooding to find these. A commitment to making dogfooding work smoothly would force us to change priorities and would postpone other work. We or someone could do that.

Increased use of https://kallithea-scm.org/repos/ would mainly influence the areas Andrew currently is taking care of, so I think it mainly is up to him how we should do it.
