Fedora's Package Review Guidelines are a nice checklist for measuring
quality of packages, however, in our case, the most important question
IMHO should be: "Does this package *need* to be part of the core
distribution?". For many packages a home in the buildservice
repositories is actually the better option:
* Buildservice packages can be updated after distro release quite easily
(and without wasting space in you repositories)
* Can be provided for released distributions
* For the end-user, using buildservice packages is IMO as easy as using
distribution packages.

just my two cents,
Michal
