I would bet a big reason is the people who make addons for xbmc most likely always run nightly versions of xbmc so their skins tend to need stuff that is not included in the current stable version that the repo is for

Also the Frodo repo has a crap load of changes needed over Eden like adding PVR that are no small task to do and do right and do fully so many may still be working on it

Or they either can't be bothered coding something they'll never use themselves - after the nightmare of doing it myself for XeeBo I personally don't fancy the prospect ever again.

Non-PVR skin disclaimer?
