Well, it was clear already: the goal is obviously to have those packages in 
the mageia repositories when it's possible. My concern was more that it could 
be tempting to say "this is a work in progress, the package will be imported 
from URL_of_the_3rd_party_repo", which would probably automatically have the 
non-wanted effect to make the bug report install the package from this repo :)
