IMO, though, the bigger issue here is that this could be a problem for  
*any* group using Chora, not just us.  So I believe that some changes  
to Chora need to be made as discussed in IRC, like assuming the  
default repository when a link doesn't specify one, adding more  
explicit rewrite rules to put the repository in the URL etc...

Thanks,
