Just stating the obvious (as I did already at IRC yesterday).

I don't care much for distro specific things in the upstream repo. I
don't do packages so I don't have to work with the fact that it is there
but if it hinders the workflow for someone I would rather remove these
things.
It's something for the package guys to decide in on my opinion. Branches
or what ever. Be my guest.
The cooperation between distros we have seen earlier is something I
really like and I hope we will see those things in the future also.


(Yes I am on the Debian/Ubuntu camp usually but this is 100% upstream
view, I don't do anything with packages for neither Debian nor Ubuntu.)
