Thanks José!

This looks promising, but I must admit that I don't understand enough of
the Fedora packaging process to really understand it. Can I use this for

I'm not totally opposed to becoming a full-blown package maintainer, but I
need to know a lot more before being willing to commit.

Thanks,
Jason
