My packages and wishlist for packages

My notes about packaging

I'm a packaing sponsor, and currently sponsor these fine people:

• FrankArnold
• PeterGordon
• CallumLerwick
• ZackCerza
• MichaelKnox
• DavidLutterkort
• AndyShevchenko
• RolandWolters
• MatteoRicchetti
• JeremySanders
• TillMaas
• ScottBaker

Random/Crazy Ideas

• A yum counter plugin would be cool, to get some statistics on how much stuff is downloaded. Something like Debian's popcon.
• Case stickers! Inspired by conversation on #fedora
• Use alien on all Fedora packages and make dpkg Fedora
• Continuous release: have a continuously updating "stable" repo built out of a development rawhide.
• Continuous integration: constantly rebuild packages upon change, then oldest first. Kind of like mdomsch's rebuilds.
