Ralf, I guess my cover as being the head of the Black Blood Red Hat
conspiracy has been found out. I started this effort a long time ago
when I was trying to figure out why a non-OSS license package in
Fedora was listed as Distributable.. I began a quick listing of
packages, but had other issues come up (the moon was in the 6th house,
and the its conjunction with Ceres opened a small door for me to
commune with my masters). Spot took it up because he thought it was
something to be done.

You have seen through my ruse of using this to help move the stars
into the proper place for R'yleh to rise again and my dark masters to
rule once more. It was so much easier to cause the pain and torment of
developers than trying to find virgins to sacrifice these days.
