I hope to be able to do bug zapping as well. Designing is something that i could do right away but i like to get started with the packaging first. btw what are packages that need to be packaged? is there a list of them? _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
