I think this is not a good idea. Pisidepo team as they call themselves are 
doing very good things.  The latest of their work that I liked very much is 
www.pardus-oyun.org. I hope it will continue to grow. 

contrib repository is an important repository that keeps growing and 
growing... and it completes the missing pieces of devel repository. You 
are doing a great job on this. As the chosen packages of the distribution we 
keep devel as small, and as managable as possible. Later as we grow, devel 
will surely also grow accordingly.

In Pardus project i dont think, to separate ourselves to individual groups is 
a wise idea.. The one thing that should matter is we are _all_ Pardus 
developers.... We are all working in this project....  For it's success and 
growth.... We are one big team of Pardus developers and that should be it.

Let's say in the near future some other group may come and call themselves 
some other name and start to keep another repository under contrib... And 
later some other, and some other... This is not a sane thing to do so... 

To make it short, contrib repository should be one repository that should hold 
all the packages that does not _or_ can not go to devel repository. Saying 
that I only maintain these packages is not a wise thing to do. It is 
simple... Either we delete the unsupported or unmainted packages or those 
should be maintained by _any_ of the voluntered Pardus developers.
