[occi-wg] OCCI on github

Hi all,
I've just discovered there is an OCCI group on github, "mirroring" a lot
of interesting OCCI related resources. IMO, popularity and tools
associated with github is really good for diffusing OCCI !

I have 2 questions:
- how to be mirrored by github's OCCI group ? (yep, I'm thinking about
erocci :) )
- the occi-extensions repository is empty. Could it be possible to
put/mirror specifications on it ?
While OGF reopository is organized with branches for each draft
specification, it does not allow a user to easily get what's ongoing
work.
I would suggest to organize it with directories, instead of branches.
Something like:

/stable        -> stable specifications
/draft         -> ongoing specifications, for which there is a (draft)
document + formal description (XML ?)
/experimental  -> formal description (XML), but no document

For specifications categories, why not inspire from XMPP
( http://xmpp.org/xmpp-protocols/xmpp-extensions/ ): active (or stable),
deprecated, draft, experimental, etc.

Anyway we organize it, I strongly support having formal description
(XML) associated with specifications, so that implementations
conformance is easier to achieve.

Best regards,
