Does that mean that when we adopt a package from SuSE we should put the suse release information in the dist tag too? What about if we pick up a package from Axel? Or suddenly a patent goes poof and we grab a package from Livna? We can certainly put credit when credit is due in the package info, or in the documentation, but come on, in the release field? Why break our naming conventions and make babies cry when they look at the regex to try and deal with these awful release strings to do an autobump? -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
