Concretely, I guess that publish a repo means setting up a server
somewhere. I don't think that everyone can easily do that or want to
invest so much effort only to submit a single package.
What's the benefit of the git/github submission workflow? I don't
immediately see how this is easier for people responsible of
accepting/rejection packages than, say, something based on an upload
interface (or even simpler, an email with an attachment).
