One question: with Fedora, would anyone be interested in the changes I've had to make to get packages more portable (and, in my case, working on HPAQ Tru64 Unix)? Most of the changes I made were spec file cleanups.
Often I've thought it would be really cool to have an up-to-date set of OSS packages for AIX and Solaris; these kinds of clean-ups and someone with the hardware and time to pay attention to them would be really nice. Currently many (most?) people install IBM's RPMs on AIX and Sunfreewareorg's PKGs on Solaris; having a set that was consistent with Fedora Linux would be a great boon. OTOH, there are not doubt issues between installing into /usr and /opt.
