The primary concern is that newcomers may find it confusing to understand the relationship between the different repositories and their purposes.
Historically, there have been multiple overlapping initiatives like ToIP, IETF, WoT, and DIF, which already caused confusion. Adding KF repositories could further complicate things for those unfamiliar with the ecosystem. Newcomers might ask, “What lives where?” and feel that the community is fragmented. Ensuring clarity through proper documentation and syncing practices could help address this issue.
The main reason for having separate KF repositories is that the open-source code that belongs there will have an enhanced balanced legal framework and decision-making unit.
