I wouldn't mind a foreign repository either, but you can always have per user permission management in SVN, so we can just be as open with new contributors. Despite that, I wouldn't mind having a few core people that get access and commit updates from others as well (if they are okay). I see no reasons why this shouldn't follow the same rules as with general development; it's the same problem, just in a different category. Bye, Axel.
