I like to propose a new policy for Factory regarding our package source handling with the goal that our package sources are upgradable, modifyable and trustable by any other developer.
Please find my proposal here:

A lot of sources want to be bzipped after download because they are big gzip archives and rpmlint complains. How should I do this with your download service?
Either we need to add an automatic recompression or we drop this policy (and rpmlint check).
Dropping would allow to compare source tarballs against checksums published upstream.
If the upstream project follows this convention. But some projects don't. With Samba we have tar.gz files while we have a tar.asc and no tar.gz.asc file. This is mainly historical grown. And as this state is documented we consider it ok. Therefore I appreciate if we're able to handle this in a flexible way on the OBS side.
