I'm very pleased to announce that the Red Hat RPM Guide has been made available under the Open Publication Licence, Version 1.0.
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/drafts/rpm-guide-en/
This is much more recent than Maximum RPM and gives a good starting point to work towards living documentation for RPM. Although some sections - notably Chapter 7 requires a complete rewrite. However I wanted to get it out in it's current form (basically as published plus errata).
I'd like to thank Eric Foster-Johnson, all those involved in the original formation of the Guide (particularly Jeff Johnson) and Tammy Fox and those at the publishers for helping to make this happen. Also thanks to the Fedora Docs team in particular Stuart Ellis and Karsten Wade for their conversion and push efforts

I'll be attempting to form a team to help edit/update content. If you want to help please follow up to fedora-docs-list.

PDF build is still broken.
If any Java experts want to help us get Saxon and FOP built using gcj for FC5, that would be great. Please see recent threads on fedora-java- devel-list.

Thanks!
I was looking to help build KDE-RedHat on x86-64 but held back due to may rather poor RPM-authoring skills.
