This is what we like to prevent with a little bit of quality control, but on the other hand we don't want to make it impossible for developers to upload their packages. If you make it too hard to upload, people will just go and create their own repository. When that happens, we can't do anything about it anymore.

So the direction should be help developers make better quality packages, but don't scare them off or offend them

At the moment, there are only a few community heroes that have uploaded a lot of quality packages. It would be nice if they would teach/help out new developers with their packages.
