Показалось созвучным некоторым мыслям, что здесь который год периодически всплывают и опять на дно до времени. --- There has been a recent discussion on the opensuse-factory mailing list about the creation of a repository for non-core packages. The concern expressed at the beginning of the discussion is that openSUSE has too many repositories of unknown quality. Right now many openSUSE community members have home repositories with software packages not found in the main openSUSE repository. Some have software that other openSUSE users would like, some have highly experimental packages that most users would rather avoid. It is difficult for the user to find the packages they want, or know which ones they might find suitable. --- http://lwn.net/Articles/295654/ и там же комментарий, относящийся и к нам: The interesting thing about openSUSE and it's Build Service is that the barrier of entry is zero. No contributor agreement, no sponsorship required -- in contrast to Debian (the strictest), Fedora and Ubuntu. Unless things have changed since 2007, that is. If you vet your contributors, then you can afford to trust them a bit more in deciding what's stable and what's not. It's not without fault -- developers are humans, after all. But it's interesting to see what solution openSUSE ends up with. -- ---- WBR, Michael Shigorin ------ Linux.Kiev http://www.linux.kiev.ua/
