If te policy of Mageia is to have a central repository with all package it
is excellent no problem for me
But eg i have an rpm of the libfreetype6 modified specialy for the greek
fonts because the plf version breaks the layout of the greek fonts:
https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=56825
And i had these rpms in the greek repo
http://www.mandrivalinux.gr/rpm/2010.1/i586/libfreetype6-2.3.12-99.1mgr2010.1.i586.rpm

But is only an exception, i am agree to have a central repository. In a mug
assembly  have asked to have a search engine to search rpms in all
communities repos. We ve never could do it, so to have one repository is a
solution to this.

I can maintain for the mageia these rpms :
http://www.mandrivalinux.gr/rpm/2010.1/i586/ (except the libfreetype6
ofcourse :D )
