I agree with monsierp here, person-level stuff should not be in |
| 23 |
the official repo. |

|
| 25 |
Also note that "not in the main repo" does not mean "non-public". |
| 26 |
People (and projects) can always publish their version of the |
| 27 |
tree somewhere else. |

I personally even dislike the project branches, but those I am |
| 30 |
more willing to accept. |

PS: Call me a pessimist, but every time I see "if it's used with |
| 36 |
caution", I think: yeah, but it won't. |
