I think we should do a bit of work and find a tangiable set of standards
that a repo needs to meet in order to be 'endorsed' or rated at a
certain level. Because at the moment it does seem to add value to a repo
or two over others, based on personal opinion.

I am willing to write code to do this validation, but were going to need
a set of good rules to implement.
