I think having distributable ISOs including Extras is a desireable goal.
So I'd like to see Extras devel rebuilt or frozen alongside FC releases.
The "rebuild by default except when specifically asked not to" policy seems 
the best suited in this case.

I'd like rpmlint run each time a package is built and the output diffed to a
reference rpmlint output for that package.  Differences would fail the build.

I'd like a similar test procedure to the Provides of the package (i.e., diff 
all the things currently provided by the package vs. the things it provided in 
the previous published version, and build fails if there are differences).

I'd like a similar test procedure for all the warnings (especially compiler 
warnings) produced during package building.

Cheers,
					Christian
