It's tentatively versioned 5.0 to coincide with the oldest version of FC
(and incidentally RHEL) it's meant to work with.

The major thing I'm planning for in this release is dropping hardcoded
"fedora-" prefix everywhere, including from the package name.  Very few
things in the package are actually Fedora specific, at least after the
changes I'm planning, see below.  And it's just annoying in executables
and looks kind of silly.  I've done some research and haven't found
things that would conflict with the renaming plan.

I'm thrilled to hear about this.  I've already been creating my rpms using the fedora tools and then modifying them back to RHEL 4.  It will be a delight to use the exact same tools for both Fedora and RHEL in the future.
