Contributing packages
I have been building RPMs for some things I use regularly (and are not in the repository) and I was wondering if it is possible / wanted for me to add them to the official contrib repository?
As long as someone is checking them, user submissions should help the package selection heaps
Cheers.
Steve.

Something along the lines of Gentoo's bug tracker (which has a section for submitted ebuilds) would be nice. dunno how well that would work with RPM's though. too big?
As much as I would like to contribute, I will NOT deal with yahoo briefcase, it's more hassle than it's worth. Unfortunatley I am too poor to pay for real hosting.
If you know of some free and easy way to get files onto the www let me know, I would even be happy to email them somewhere.
Cheers.
Steve.
