Hi Jörg, we definitely needs something like this and your suggested set of rules seems sane.

While I won't question the need to support signed mails or commands files, I would like to argue for the support of a web interface as well. The sheer number of operations that are possible on such repositories will make it difficult to remember the precise syntax of the various operations. A web interface is much more discoverable. Furthermore it's obvious that we will have web interfaces such as those used to track transitions and it would be nice if we could unify them at a single place (think: checking the tracker, then clicking a button to trigger/request a bin-nmu of foo, another button to import the correct version of bar, etc). I'm not asking you to create that web interface but at least to keep in mind the fact that someone might want to write it and as such to clearly separate what needs to be handled separately (mainly authentication I guess).
