FWIW, I support this, as my Chromium packages are in the Fedora People
repos, and technically, in violation of the current policy.
Actually, I had a discussion with the Fedora Hosted admins about this on
Friday. We determined that Chromium is NOT in violation of the current
policy on repos. Basically, the only two rules are: must be a compatible
license and must not be on the ForbiddenItems list.
My proposal is more of a marketing formalization of this policy: that
repos can be kept unofficial, but still on a
fedora*.org domain so that
we retain the mindshare (as opposed to having
joesrepo.geocities.com,
for example).
