oh great...yet another repository in the 3rd party repository space.....

If you are talking about open source drivers, then well, why can't you
use the fedora.us process right now to build up extra drivers?

And if you aren't talking about open source drivers, considering the
objectives of the Fedora project, you would have to place those hardware
drivers in a repository outside of the official loop, rpm.livna.org
comes to mind.

Either way...if people were really interested in trying to contribute
add-on hardware drivers, isn't there a place in the existing repository
ecosystem right now for people to contribute such efforts?
