This has also been captured at
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu%20Kylin/Ubuntu%20Kylin%20Archive>. 
Currently, it's written as:

  Packages in the repository must adhere to the Extension Repository Policy.
  If there is any exception, there should be a request to Ubuntu Technical
  Board.

I think we should drop the second sentence: there should never be exceptions
to the Extension Repository Policy here, but the TB can amend that policy as
necessary, so it's redundant to spell this out here.
