I think we should first focus on making the home:* repositories more secure. What would best way to push this forward?

Initial phase: Scanning binaries for known problems using some antivirus/rootkit software, before actually publishing, even in home:* repositories.

I personally do not like this idea much, because it can cause the risk that people believe that software is "good" if the scanner does not find anything inside.

However, any scanner what helps manually reviewing is of course very helpfull.
