It would be very nice if extension authors could link their modules with repositories. At the moment we all have to export the current repository, pack it to zip and upload. This might become quite wearisome for 5+ extensions.

The idea of connecting repo with extension might be technically a little difficult since many repos are built differently. However, it would be possible if those repos are built on the proposed schema. Otherwise they would just not qualify to be connected.

Once the repo is connect, we could have a little form for publishing a new release:
[ s 1.1 ] <- A release version (stable 1.1), text input
[ --- Select branch --- [v]] <- 1.0, **1.1**, 1.2
[ Import from repository ] <- submit button

What do you think about this idea?
