No, not at all. This tool would create spec files that after some
minor
manual tweaks could be included as a part of Fedora.
This tool would download *source* tarballs and extract metadata from
pom.xml files creating package skeleton with one artifact per
subpackage,
%build section consisting of mvn-rpmbuild and so on. Such package
would
meet packaging guidelines and could definitely be used to package
software for inclusion in Fedora.
