Peter arranged the repository as he felt better, since he maintained the whole 
archive during these years.

I'm not acquainted with submodules. I'm just filing all my PROs and CONs 
before asking for a small rearrangement. At the moment I see only CONs:

1) We need 2 tags for each distribution
2) We need to fetch the gnulib repository
3) The small problems I mentioned earlier

I don't see PROs at the moment but I should admit my ignorance on the subject.

Ciao,
Francesco
