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
