[CentOS-devel] CATPR - Community Approved Third Party Repos

Howdy,

There are several "release" packages in the Extras repository for SIGs and
third party repositories.

centos-release-virt-common
centos-release-openstack
epel-release

Currently there are no guidelines for other third party repositories to be
included, so I wrote this document.

What is this document missing?  Are there any additional rules that need to be
added for a third party repository to be considered?  Also, if these guidelines
are accepted, what does the approval process look like?  Obviously repositories
would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, but who has the final say on
whether a repository is approved or not?
