Description Juergen Weigert 2013-03-12 18:33:24 UTC
As we define developers to be in our target audience group, we should offer them our tools repo for package building and build service usage.

openSUSE:Tools
Comment 3 Stephan Kulow 2013-04-17 12:59:46 UTC
Not sure who "we" is that defined "our" target audience. But http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Strategy says

Target users

The project caters to users who are interested in computers and want to get work done, experiment or learn. We offer a stable and enjoyable computing experience which does not limit freedom of choice; offering sane defaults and easy configuration.

It doesn't contain the word building packages.

The community repos are the most popular ones, by download stats. So if you want to promote openSUSE:Tools, blog about it and tell everyone who builds packages - and if it becomes a popular one, we add it.
