Then you just need to import from copr-dist-git and it handles all the building,etc. All that said, we still need a human to look at requests, I don't think we can 100% automate this. I could make a perfectly valid ffmpeg package that passes all tests, but it's still not acceptable for fedora. We could however make it easier to review/approve things, spread the load to more people and such. > > As this is my first flask project and I can only spend few hours per > week, the code is still in very early stage.
