I've added an entry to

"Addon Packages (x11 drivers)"
No offense, but I removed it again. Changes to these kind of documents
are best (read "best" -- not "have to be") discussed with FESCo, on
fedora-packaging and/or with spot, the original author and maintainer of
this document and the Packaging Guidelines in general.
BTW: Shortly before FC5 was released there was a irc-discussion
regarding the package naming of the proprietary nvidia and fglrx
drivers. It was on #fedora-extras (spot was involved in that discussion,
too) -- the consensus was "use prefix xorg-x11-drv even for non-Xorg
drivers". And that's what livna did for FC5 then.
We should probably discuss this during the next FESCo-Meeting with spot.
I'm rather surprised about that. I wasn't on such mailing lists, but
since I was the one who chose the naming, I'd have expected to have
at least been contacted by someone to determine what the package
naming rationale was.
Houston, we've lost communication!
