Nitpick: that particular door is already open (but you know that:

see the recent community SSU for Maemo 4 as an example
) - the main enabler was this (it'd probably be a good idea to get explicit permission for Fremantle as well) plus X-Fade helpfully creating the repositories (but at the end of the day the hosting location is just a cosmetic detail).

BTW, one related issue that's not quite clear at the moment is the fate of the nokia.com repositories. I assume these will not be handed over, but will Nokia continue hosting them for the foreseeable future or should we start making local copies for personal use?
