Hiya,

It was quiet here for (too) long time. Time to get back to updates from 
the Fedora RPM world. There are quite a few news!

1. I've enabled the domain mode for the jboss-as package in Fedora 19+. 
It's now easy to choose the mode for JBoss AS to launch at system boot. 
I wrote a blog post explaining the basics:

2. Yesterday I (hopefully) fixed a bug that prevented from running oVirt 
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972738) on Fedora 19. 
Please grab the update and bump the karma if it fixes the issue:

3. And this is the most important thing - I've started upgrading all the 
components to make it possible to package WildFly into Fedora. The 
target is Fedora 20 (Final in ~January 2014). So far I made a nice 
progress - I'm building now 28 modules out of 96.

Currently I'm fighting with the transaction and clustering parts. Some 
of the projects were renamed (or changed the build system) and this 
involves more work on my side to make it work in Fedora.

OK, that's all from the news for now, you'll be hearing from me more in 
the near future.

Thanks!
