In the past, we had
specifically avoided doing this for a few reasons:
1. We didn't want to be
accused of playing favorites with 3rd party repos
2. We didn't want the
expectation of support ("I didn't add anything to
the default centos, I just
yum-installed it!")
3. We didn't want to ship
code that wasn't built/signed by us.
Given the new structure,
it may be worth having this conversation again.
Thoughts from the
community?
