1. Using a CVS there should be someone actively taking recipes from the list
and adding them; which will result in a lot of good quality recipes.
2. Using the a non-CVS solution the quality of the recipes might be somewhat
lower, and the number of recipes higher; not to mention that more people will
easier keep on working with their scripts.
The problem with #1 is that it would have to focus on complete solutions; the
problem with #2 is that the user would have to do a lil bit of thinking before
he starts using a recipe.
Personally I think people will lose interest pretty quickly, and that only #1
would have a real chance to survive (or even get going at all).
I was thinking along the lines of convenience of retreiving... perhaps a
combination of methods? CVS for recipe maintainers or section
maintainers, with a way for others to access the results by other means.
