I know that I shouldn't feed a troll, but I couldn't resist -- in 
my not so humble opinion, most of the third party repos (except 
for the one, which I cannot name here) are more or less products 
of the time when it was difficult to put new packages into Fedora 
proper (yes, there were times before Extras). Now, I really don't 
see the reason, why you cannot take your package (except for the 
pesky legal reasons, but less put that aside) and put that 
package into Fedora.

Do I miss anything?
