Fedora 11 feature

I think we should drop some packages from the Fedora 11 feature[1], in
order to make the feature freeze deadline more easily.  The packages
I'm proposing to drop from the feature are:

 mingw32-gnutls
 mingw32-libvirt
 mingw32-portablexdr
 mingw32-postgresql

*NOTE* that I'm NOT saying we should drop the packages or close the
bugs.  Just that we don't set ourselves this artificial deadline of
fixing those packages before Fedora 11 feature freeze.  The packages
themselves will continue their journey into Fedora as before.

If we did this, it would leave some fairly uncontroversial packages,
and ensure we can have the major prize (Gtk) by F11.  The packages
remaining would be:

 mingw32-jasper     https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467408
 mingw32-pango      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467419
 mingw32-fontconfig https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467413

There's a small question as to whether mingw32-fontconfig really
requires mingw32-expat or not, which I'm going to look at today.

Comments?

Rich.
