No, the central repository certainly shouldn't be on the web (whatever |
| 19 |
that means in the first place), it has to be somewhere in CVS |
| 20 |
(easily accessible by all devs, though not necessarily in a direct way) |
| 21 |
and should be replicated to as many channels as possible (the website |
| 22 |
being one of them). |
