I certainly recognise John's 3 repo categories amongst our bunch.

We're around the 24 (quite varied) repo mark so can represent a fair
chunk of the crowd. I'd be very much in interested in any exercise to
look for overlapping bits of metadata across different "types" of
repository. Hopefully with the potential to make EPrints "even more" out
of the box. We'd certainly have some data to add to the mix on this.
