You are free to do so. But do you have any other ideas how to get other 3rd
party repos under the RPM Fusion hood to get rid of the repo mess that
confuses users and results in repo mixing problems? Merging Driobble,
Freshrpms and 99,5% or Livna was good, but IMHO way more is needed.
Let me rephrase that. I think that if we convince external repository
maintainer to drop their repo and use our infra (IMHO that is 95% of
the work), then we could easily convince them to submit their package
for review here.
Sure, more is needed, I couldn't agree more. We need those 3rd party
repo maintainers to join us like we did with the original merger. The
real question is what they are going to do. I think we can start
inviting them (or inviting them again) on this mailing list and start
discussing with them this question.
Bye,
