So, how do we proceed?

Is your preference against a gnome-perl repository set in stone?  If so,
how do you suggest we deal with the directories I mentioned in my
previous mail?  To recap: we have a few things in our repository that
don't belong to one binding but rather to all of them:

  docs/		- generic documentation applying to all our bindings
  helpers/	- helper programs to aid developing bindings
  Makefile	- a Makefile to build all or a subset of our bindings

Additionally, we have some modules in our repository that would look
weird as top-level repositories in GNOME SVN, even if we prepended
'perl-' to their name:

  ExtUtils-Depends
  ExtUtils-PkgConfig
  GStreamer
  GStreamer-Interfaces

I'd like to import our Cairo module, too -- it's currently hosted on
Freedesktop's CVS repository.
