Packaging 3-rd party repositories in rpmfusion

Formally, this is about review request 3152 for dropbox-repo [1]. From a more practical POV, it's about users being able to install software like dropbox more or less "out of the box", an area where I think we really need to improve (as can be seen in all those "Fedora XX post installation guide" out there). My basic understanding is that current Fedora guidelines needs a interpretation in the rpmfusion context. Those brand new GL for 3-rd party repos are in [2] (discussions in [3]). For now, I think they can be abridged to: - Non-free repos can not be part of Fedora yum configuration. - In some cases free repos can be part of the configuration after FESCO/Fedora legal approval. Now, IMHO this doesn't really make much sense for rpmfusion for three reasons: - rpmfusion does not ban non-free software, it's one of the very reasons it exists. - FESCO/Fedora legal cannot approve anything in rpmfusion. - We already have a list of endorsed 3-rd party repos [4]. To handle this, my simple proposal is that we handles packaged yum repositories like this: - It's ok to package yum repositories listed in [4]. - If anyone wants to change the list in [4] this should be announced here on rpmfusion-devel, and not done until we agree on it (similar to how we handle bundling exceptions). Thoughts. out there? --alec [1] https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3152 [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Third_Party_Repository_Policy [3] https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1201#comment:32 [4] http://rpmfusion.org/FedoraThirdPartyRepos
