How can I participate in updating or adding the tis-xxxx package on your servers?
Or how can I share our packages with other members?

To share packages with other members, you can simply share the WAPT file via email, for example.
The console has an "Import from file" button.
Alternatively, I've created a small package sharing interface:
https://github.com/sfonteneau/repo_wapt_collaboratif.
It allows you to delete and upload WAPT packages from a web interface and automatically regenerates the "Packages" file.
It's very practical for a small community of IT professionals. We use it to share our packages between different schools.
You can create your own repository,
Simon.

Thanks for your reply.
But I think it's a shame not to be able to participate in WAPTGET projects
by adding official tis-xxxx repositories. Other repository software like Chocolatey has more repositories.
For example, Kodi, which is free, is missing, as are Nvidia and ATI drivers. That would be a plus.
And including paid software without cracks, of course, is also interesting.
I'd like to be a member of your project to add repositories that would benefit everyone, so that everyone doesn't create their own repositories when the goal is to share them.
Your GitHub project is interesting. Have you created a website directory of your repositories, and can we contribute to it?

It's complicated because we have to be certain we're not providing a corrupted package to repository users; this requires verification.
Imagine ransomware hidden in a package. It would be easy to compromise an entire network.
If you simply provide the contents of your setup.py file and the (official) link to the binary, it becomes easy for Tranquil.it to recreate the package and thus be certain it's not compromised.
For these same reasons, the project (GitHub) I sent you is online but password-protected.
When packages are considered ready and useful, I post them here:
https://wapt.lesfourmisduweb.org.
If you provide me with a setup.py file and the binary link, I could recreate the package and post it if you wish.
