What problems are we trying to solve?
Why is the exherbo approach better?

More specific questions:
* How fine-grained do you want the repositories to be?
* Who controls access?
* How is QA being done?
* Who defines what is "officially supported"
  (right now it is "in the tree, not p.masked")
* What about global data (the non-cache files in metadata, eclasses)?
