Plus you have no central place to report bugs and no stable |
8 |
infrastructure to maintain stuff. |

From my POV, one of our strengths over other distributions is that we |
10 |
can provide it all with one repository in one central place and don't |
11 |
have issues with a sources.list longer than any make.conf you can come |
12 |
up with. |

Overlays are there (even though they are hacks) for development or other |
15 |
packages that don't find a maintainer for some reason; supporting |
16 |
completely different repos like CPAN and whatnot is desirable as you |
17 |
strip packaging workload. |
18 |
But other than that I think we should keep the one big repo strategy. If |
19 |
others feel different, well they can start right now, no technical |
20 |
reason stops people from doing so anyway. |
