What does "well maintained" mean? If it means rejecting an upload
that doesn't fit one of the official categories, then I see no
significant difference between that and what I said. Otherwise, how
do you envisage good maintenance solving this problem?

Actually, I personally don't perceive a "general repository mess". as
far as automating the process of adding a new repository is concerned,
I'd say the .install files have worked very well. On the other hand,
the profusion of category buttons in Application Manager is a very
perceptible problem.
