Hey, While preparing win64 support in Fedora a dedicated yum testing repository was used to provide win64 packages which could be tested. As win64 support has now arrived in Fedora 17 this dedicated yum testing repository has become obsolete and will be removed eventually.
Over time various people started to contribute new packages to this testing repository. As this testing repository won't be updated any more we're looking for people who want to maintain these new packages in Fedora. Here is a list of packages which people contributed to the testing repository but which aren't part of Fedora yet: mingw-attica: Implementation of the Open Collaboration Services API mingw-crypt: Cryptographic functions from GLIBC 2.14 mingw-dbusmenu-qt: A Qt implementation of the DBusMenu protocol mingw-fftw: A Fast Fourier Transform library mingw-flac: Free Lossless Audio Codec Library mingw-gd: A graphics library for quick creation of PNG or JPEG images mingw-giflib: Library for manipulating GIF format image files mingw-gstreamer-ffmpeg: Cross compiled GStreamer FFmpeg-based plug-ins mingw-gstreamer-plugins-bad: Cross compiled GStreamer plug-ins "bad" mingw-gstreamer-plugins-bad-free: Cross compiled GStreamer plug-ins "bad" mingw-gstreamer-plugins-good: Cross compiled GStreamer plug-ins good mingw-gstreamer-plugins-ugly: Cross compiled GStreamer plug-ins ugly mingw-gtk2-engines: Theme engines for GTK+ 2.0 mingw-jack-audio-connection-kit: The Jack Audio Connection Kit mingw-kdelibs: KDE Libraries mingw-kdewin: Supplementary library for compiling KDE applications on Windows mingw-libart_lgpl: Library of graphics routines used by libgnomecanvas mingw-libgnomecanvas: GnomeCanvas widget mingw-libgnomecanvasmm: C++ interface for Gnome libs mingw-liblrdf: Library for manipulating RDF files describing LADSPA plugins mingw-libproxy: Library handling all the details of proxy configuration mingw-libsamplerate: MinGW Windows Sample rate conversion library for audio data mingw-libsndfile: Library for reading and writing sound files mingw-libtheora: Cross compiled Theora Video Compression Codec mingw-orc: Cross compiled Oil Run-time Compiler mingw-phonon: Multimedia framework api mingw-portaudio: Free, cross platform, open-source, audio I/O library mingw-qjson: A qt-based library that maps JSON data to QVariant objects mingw-qtlockedfile: Cross compiled QFile extension with advisory locking functions mingw-qtsingleapplication: Qt library to start applications only once per user mingw-raptor: Raptor RDF Parser Toolkit mingw-spice-gtk: A GTK+ widget for SPICE clients mingw-strigi: Strigi search engine libraries If you're interested in maintaining one of these packages in Fedora feel free to pull the latest .spec files and patches from [1] and file a review request ticket for them [2]. Don't forgot to add fedora-mi...@lists.fedoraproject.org to the CC field of your review ticket so you can find people to review your packages more soon. The packages mingw-gstreamer-ffmpeg, mingw-gstreamer-plugins-bad and mingw-gstreamer-plugins-ugly aren't allowed in the Fedora repos itself because of legal reasons. If you're interested in maintaining these you can file a review request in RPMFusion [3] where these packages are welcome.
