<title>Extending Repository Layout</title>

Occasionly, you may find that new components of &TCPCVI; need
to be added to the repository in order to work them out. If
that is the case, the first question we need to ask ourselves,
before starting to create directories blindly all over, is:
<emphasis>What is the right place to store it?</emphasis>

To build a directory structure inside the repository you need
to define the concept behind it first. Later you need to
create a new directory inside the repository, remembering that
there are locations inside the repository that already define
concepts you probably would prefer to reuse. For example, the
<filename
class="directory">trunk/Identity/Images/Themes</filename>
directory stores artistic motifs of different themes, the
<filename
class="directory">trunk/Identity/Models/Themes</filename>
directory stores design models for themes, the <filename
class="directory">trunk/Manuals</filename> directory stores
documentation, the <filename
class="directory">trunk/Locales</filename> stores translation
messages, and the <filename
class="directory">trunk/Scripts</filename> stores automation
scripts.
</para>

The best suggestion we can probably give you would be to send
a mail with your questions to the <ulink
url="mailto:centos-devel@centos.org">CentOS developers mailing
list</ulink> (<ulink
url="mailto:centos-devel@centos.org">centos-devel@centos.org</ulink>).
This is the place where development of &TCAR; takes place and
surely, in community, it will be possible to find a place for
your new component inside the repository.
