In light of the recent discussion at the Plone Snowsprint, there is a general 
desire to have a common repository for Zope 3 addons that are useful, but 
might not be appropriate for the core. In my opinion we would like to be able 
to control the license and quality of this repository. Basically, it should 
be core-quality/ready code in an add-on place. Thus, it would also require 
those packages to follow the Zope 3 development process. I have had positive 
feedback about this idea from the Plone developers.

In the coming weeks I am going to be involved in this sort of discussion 
hopefully on this and the plone-dev list. I welcome any initial ideas and 
comments. (Of course, Martijn and I can/will use the opportunity of being at 
the physically same location this week to talk about this offline.)

Regards,
Stephan
