The actual number of repos is somewhat of a moot factor - what really
matters is the code size and activity. I've been doing some timed scans
on the demo server, and I think we can safely bump the resource object
count to 600-700 without any real difficult (note that this would still
only be about an 1/8th of all of ASF).
If someone wants to add Sling, go right ahead :)
