Someday maybe...  right now, no one else has even expressed interest in using
it, so it's not worth the overhead of having a site, etc.  The authoritative
source is the src.rpm

jbowes fixed this up for 1.2.11

Yeah, necessary evil of having legacy.  The obsoletes are for the upgrade path
only, not for people wanting to require a specific type of functionality.

jbowes fixed this up too

I expected it was over 100 at this point ;-)  Big triage to come hopefully the
end of this week.  Trying to get a few other things in shape prior to the
feature freeze, though, so it remains to be seen.
