Excerpts from Dagobert Michelsen's message of Thu Apr 16 09:11:58 -0400 2009:

Hi Dago,

Does that not preclude people from building on their own farms if
they're not a maintainer and then contributing the work back?  Since
the repo is public, anyone could checkout GAR and build a package.
GAR might have the SVN stuff, but their local package description
might not.  Would we refuse to release a package in this case?

[My own feeling is that we'd simply request that they open a
maintainer account and commit the source in that case, but since we
don't even force the use of GAR/svn within the existing maintainer
base, this may seem heavy handed.]

Thanks
-Ben
