Hi! After a bit of discussion on #fedora-devel I was directed here to start some discussion. The issue is that you guys have some neat stuff in Fedora which you essentially are also upstream for. Now, usually when we (Ubuntu in my case) package software, we go to a homepage or ftp site or whatever to grab a tarball, add our packaging to that and upload it to our archive. If I want to do the same with, say, system-config-samba, I've just learned that I should go to koji, grab the SRPM, donwload it, extract the "upstream" tar.bz2 from the SRPM and convert it to a tar.gz (yes, I need a gzipped version, but don't worry about that). It's hard to discover availability of new versions and equally hard to get my hands on the corresponding tarball. The short version is: It would be massively helpful to us (and possibly others) if you could provide those tarballs in a more (for us) easily accessible place, e.g. an ftp site or a web site of some sort.
