+1 - as long as the location is configurable. OpenShift typically keeps
its pos_file in the log directory (e.g. /var/log) that is mounted from

+1 - gem2rpm for starters. But watch out because gem2rpm will sometimes
generate too many Requires and BuildRequires which aren't really needed,
and will miss some Requires and BuildRequires, and see
