Being a user of a software is not a good reason to tie it to it. Ask Stef ;) It 
is nice if the moose team took (and takes) care for it. But you can take care 
in another repository as well. I think petit parser is an important and 
standalone package that has nothing to do with moose. Putting this inside 
another project just weakens the included project.

That is what metacello is for. Refer to the versions you need and you are off 
the races. As you are one of those who maintains it you are even in the 
position to _not_ integrate every other change. So if the write restriction to 
petit parser (being in the moose repo) is the solution we should talk.
