I'll try to list some things such repository would make possible:
- find and obtain externals easily
- externals in the repository are considered more "official"
than the code lurking around
- get the latest externals and/or versions automagically
- automated building and packaging of externals
(in some cases, I'd like to get a package that has all the
major libraries and externals, prebuilt)
- ... ?
The major advantage of course is a versioning system, merging of
many peoples' changes, etc.
