[jboss-rpm] Introduction

[Marek Goldmann]

Hiya Seb,

That's not an issue at all. Like I said - we have different options :)

As an example package to start I propose:

After you submit your first package someone could sponsor you to packager group. After this process - you're free to do reviews of submitted packages.
