This would definitely air to breath and we can continue to improve things from there.
The arago-project layout seems nicer, effectively just hiding subtrees rather than using separate DNSes; also, they are linked from the main repos to the other ones, whereas if we create a people.git.linaro.org, how will people discover it? It's best to avoid having 3 places/hostnames for people to host stuff.
As one example, ubuntu packages having a
vcs-bzr field and a reasonable tagging/versioning scheme could probably work, but we have to look case by case.
Problem is that a Vcs-* field is not consistently applied :-/ Sometimes it's not set, or doesn't point at the right repo, or points at a repo with a special tree where people have to do magic to get things done.
