Ric Well, this project started from a merger proposition between livna and ATrpms last summer. I scaled this project up by inviting Freshrpms, Dag, Dries and CentOS over and hoped we would have the Total Unified Repo. But some people (or one people?) didn't like this and started to block everything until most repos jumped away again. Same for the EPEL effort with the same protagonists. > No DAG/RPMforge, either. The real TOR or perhaps now GUR is at rpmrepo.org now. We'll create a big rpm-shop satisfying RHEL and Fedora folks with both conservative and progressive attitudes. Note that contrary to what some people have claimed in this thread ATrpms has nothing against livna. In fact ATrpms is one of the bigger mirrors for livna, and as said there was even a merger effort underway. In general I have been trying to build bridges between the 3rd party repo rifts created years ago. But the feelings aren't quite mutual and unfortunately some people with some influence do steer us further into even more rifts. :/ -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
