I fully agree. You have just to think whether GTK+ should have a
separate repository or not.

What would be the reason to put GTK+ in a separate repository?

For projects, that depend just only on the latest GTK+. But it is
probably overkill.


If people like the idea, we can probably start by listing packages where
the rdiff between openSUSE:11.1 and G:S:2.26 is empty.

And reversely packages with version 2.26.x will become a part of G:S
automatically.

I propose to move the rest to GNOME:APPLICATIONS or something similar.
In difference to GNOME:Community it would be uses as a base for Factory.

Do you mean something like GNOME:Apps:2.26, GNOME:Apps:2.28 etc?

No. I think about a single repository to prevent multiple copies of the
same binary.

These packages don't follow GNOME release cycle and most of them don't
depend on the latest GNOME version => there is no reason to split them
per GNOME version.
