I thought about to create a svn repo for spec file templates. One for KDE, Gnome, perl, apache module or whatever.
Is there some interest that we should create one or are you fine with the solution to have these in the wiki ?
In my opinion a svn repository is better because the tools are just more mature for browsing history (to understand changes and so on) than using a browser and clicking through multiple history pages.
The bigger problem i see, is WHY some changes are made to exisiting spec files, as there is almost no documentation in these.
I can second that but that could be solved by the repository idea if you train people to write a useful change comment when they commit a change. Currently you often read in the changelog of many packages something like "removing foo bar" but nothing actually explains why this is removed from all packages. Most likely there was a choice based on a reason but it would be interesting to know this reason.
