Some thoughts that comes to my mind:

- What if the project depends on external stuff? Let's put dbxtalk:  for
the tests running ok, you have to install opendbx + several databases.
And since it's a pain to perform a special install for every project with
special necessities, this kind of projects should be considered as a
special case perhaps...

- And what if the project has no test cases? hehe

 - Should the process care about overrides between packages? :/  We can
have conflicting projects...

BTW, If a person takes care of publishing the package to the metarepo
inbox, isn't it enough to consider the package to be included as it is?
It's a lot of work to certify each project :/
