Hey,

[eggs in debian]

Okay, I can see this as an additional, more stably maintained resource
of eggs than the cheeseshop. That might indeed be helpful.

I don't know. :) I don't know how a gated community is supposed to work.

One of the issues is that it doesn't solve my problem if you just have
a big one. You'd need a gated community per *version* of Grok in order
to make sure no newer eggs sneak into the project after release.
