I have not used the OPM extensively, but I think that once a package has
been registered/accepted, I think the original author must be able to
upload his
own changes.

@silvioprog
Me too. Many other PMs allows the component/library authors to upgrade
their packages. I personally would like to use any procedure instead of
sending e-mail.

Creating such an infrastructure would require a lot of work and time. First
you need a registration/login system for the package developers, a database
to store information about the packages, a mechanism to find
dependencies(currently is done by parsing a json), quotas for users, etc.
More over OPM shouldn't connect directly to the database, you need a third
application running on server side via cgi, also you need some kind of
traffic encryption. Definitely not a one man job.
