Because as far as I know that's the only 3rd-party repository that managed: - to get community packagers from different distros working together - to get paid distro packagers work with the community packagers - to create a common rpm namespace accross rpm distros (unfortunately debian got its own affort on rails at about the same time so you still have a rpm/deb disconnect) - to have packaging work flow both to and from fedora (and other distros) I don't know if the jpp model could be extended. It was successful largely because there was no in-distro java packaging when jpp was created, vendor java packaging was awful, so there was no competing packagesets and NIH attitudes to work against. You'll note when jpp is involved @rh people argue for 3rd-party cooperation and "community" fedora people against it. -- Nicolas Mailhot -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
