fedora-kde packaging

[anirudh singh shekhawat]

Hi,
This mail is an attempt to reaching out to guys who are looking for some foss related work and want to know how things work.
I found a few nice [1]-[5] packages which are in the fedora-kde wishlist [6] and need to be packaged, so anyone interested in fedora and kde packaging should check them out. For more references and info contact me.

I'm sure there are other interesting packages too, so it'd be great if you can any of the packaging, for the new guys, this really helps in understanding how packaging works and also to check the code of some nice apps, maybe you endup contributing in some.

I am generally interested in packaging several items for distros out
there. But sadly fedora/red hat don't allow the non free stuff being
used in those apps/toolkits. One example of that is Panda3D which has
been refused by RedHat/Fedora previously. I can still take a look at
RPM fusion. ;)

/me looks at the other apps that could use packaging.

Kind Regards

well panda3D is a BSD license, i dont know much about that, but you can check here [1] for packaging in rpmfusion
