Thanks to the efforts and keen eye of Mr. Malone, we now have a working 
spin build again. The spins are on my server at uni, so there should be 
plenty of bandwidth to go around.

You can get both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions at 
sheep-punchers.info/fedora-jam

I will set up a nightly build system later tonight, so that it will be 
built fresh every night

Now go download it and give it a try!
