This argument is about a technical problem, rather than a social or cultural one. The debate will go away when the technical problem is solved. Packages in [community] have categories, and one of those categories is "games". One solution is a "partial mirror" script, which excludes packages from a mirror based on their category. This also obviates any perceived need to split [community]. Someone has to write the script, but it seems like a good idea to me!
rsync has an exclude option which can selectively exclude files from being synchronized. Removing a package from community.db.tar.gz is also easy. -- Abhishek
