Actually, I don't see why you want to restrict where the code is; as long as it is publically available (and not just a code dump once in a while). I would not be in favour of integrating other repositories either. Not because I don't like them, but because we can't just "pick a few". There are many people, that have their own preferences about source control. I certainly don't want every extension's git commits (this is an example) end up on how pecl-cvs list. If they want the peer review, they can use php's SVN. If people want to use other trackers, fine; we have a link for that in the package info already. I don't see what other integration you want to do there. Derick -- http://derickrethans.nl | http://xdebug.org Like Xdebug?
