I think there were some feature issues as well, but auth was the first blocker. this is being worked out - so there is potential for people to come help and make things happen. At the moment, the auth issue is being handled in the buildsystem meetings that take place on irc.freenode.net in #centos-devel at 13:00 UTC, every week. Come join, even if its just to participate and comment on process being used. -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
