Greetings and how do I sign up?

[SL Baur]

Greetings everyone.  In past lifetimes I was maintainer of
XEmacs and an employee at Turbolinux.

I would like to see RPMs made of QtAda and the Icon Language
http://www.cs.arizona.edu/icon/status.htm

I maintained Icon RPMs at Turbolinux, but I don't think they
ever made it to the world.  The world still needs Icon so I want
to bring them back.

Is there someone working on QtAda or Icon?  I'd like to build
RPMs for those packages.

You should look at:

Search http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ to find out if the package is
waiting for review.  If not, go ahead and make it following the
process here:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/NewPackageProcess

Question to everyone: Does Fedora have a Request-for-packaging process
like Debian?  [http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/requested].  This
process is good for people who want a package but don't necessarily
have the skills or time to become a Fedora maintainer.

I know that list
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/WishList

But it probably needs a FA to add something in it..

I adapted a PLD linux spec, it can be found here:
http://www.environnement.ens.fr/perso/dumas/fc-srpms/icon-9.4.3-1.fc9.src...

it still needs some work.
