Interesting.  Didn't know about apt-get.org.

Browsing that list gave me a laugh, though.  Debian Potato indeed.

I didn't see any repository listed there that is as extensive as, say, ATrpms 
is.  

I didn't take the time to look at every repo listed there, but a cursory skim 
indicates that most are small, and none replace core packages that I could 
see.
