Well, what I would prefer personally is that contrib projects be in the 
xwiki-contrib organization and use the XWiki tools (wiki, jira, etc).

The reason is that this allows:
* to group together projects around XWiki (they're not scattered everywhere on 
the web and harder to find)
* make it a neutral location for people to collaborate together on xwiki 
projects. That's a key element to contribution IMO
* is more long term. If you stop working on the project it's not going to be a 
dead project in someone's github repo and it'll have more chance of being 
maintained/seen in the xwiki-contrib repo

I know Jerome also puts his contributions in his own github project and I had 
the same reservation about it.

We can't force anyone of course since this is a contribution but it's more 
collaborative to make them xwiki-contrib project, following the rules defined 
at http://contrib.xwiki.org

I understand you may want to beef up your github profile but for collaboration 
I feel the xwiki-contrib is better with the 2 arguments listed above.

Jerome, Caleb let me know what you think.

Thanks
