Heh, the places where you see your name pop up ;-)

Now, back to business: I think this project has great potential and
could allow rpm based distributions to ship optimized packages without
having to leave old hardware behind (like the fortunately abandoned
baseline increase proposal from a few years ago).

So anyone interested in this: hackweek is open to anyone and I think
that Antonio won't mind getting help ;-)
