Yep, but this was totally unannounced changes, so you have failed an
important step at making free software, the advertising part.
I was not able to review the changes made even if I'm co-admin of the
package. So this is making the workflow harder.

Furthermore, if there is really a need to have a separate repos, which
I still fails to see any argument for, this has to be made in the
rpmfusion-infra namespace, like others projects do.
(until we have a better location such as a public git.rpmfusion.org
running pagure or else).

Yeah, that's always like that, don't worry I took the infra to
maintain for the very same reason.

Above all, I'd like theses kind of changes to be peer reviewed. This
is how a community repo can hold, if not this is only an aggregate of
first to come ideas.

Thx
