imo; non_free should be separated from free (to allow easy Free releases)

extra could contain the (un/poorly) maintained packages (or extra could be 
gone).

for efficiency reasons, maybe having main+contrib in one repos; could be slow

we could separate some noarch content packages in another repos (which will 
never be arched)
