Hmm, you didn't even ask about status updates from the Fedora merger
front. And as you know, I'm not the fedora.us spokesman, so you would
be asking the wrong person. ;) Although, I thought the information in
my first reply in this thread was enough of a hint.

Not being the spokesman of fedora.us or Fedora Extras, I'm not in the
know. There is a sporadical flow of information, but no schedule. Only
plans. I posted my feelings somewhere else and don't want to repeat
that here.

How often do I need to repeat myself? Such a thing does not exist at
fedora.us unlike at rpm.livna.org. The CVS server was never really
used for live-development except for a small set of packages. Nobody
pushed forward the development of the infrastructure and necessary
policies. Either nobody had the time or interest. Or everybody hoped
that a miracle would happen and Fedora Project infrastructure would
appear much sooner. And as a normal contributor one could follow
activity with yum by monitoring the "pending" repository, by watching
the UPDATE and PUBLISH queues, and by mirroring the allspecs tarball.

Which was filled some time this year and has not been used earlier.
Similar to bugzilla.atrpms.net, it doesn't seem to be linked at your
repository's web site and not at freshrpms.net either. Talking about
more transparency...
