So, things like the kde-unstable, gnome-unstable, xorg18 repos should go 
in [staging]?  Or should they go straight into [testing]?   Because 
people actually use them so [staging] may be too polluted for them, but 
they are not ready for [testing]...  do we need another repo in-between?  :P

How about we just make the group owner of the root of repo to allow 
people with push access to [core] to create repos and have db-scripts 
only fail if [community{,-testing}] is used on gerolde?
