Package R-Matrix submitted for review

[Tom Moertel]

Fellow R-module packagers,

I wanted to let you know that I have (finally) submitted the first of my 
R packages for review:

     https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=241052

Please take a look and let me know if there is anything I can do to 
improve this package.

Once all the wrinkles are ironed out and the package is accepted, I will 
submit my other packages for review.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,
Tom

  I will try to have a look at them next week.
  I still have to release the first release candidate of lyx 1.5 
meanwhile. :-)

Which branches should I apply for? FC-6 and F-7? [was: R-Matrix ready for more review]

[Tom Moertel]

Fellow R-module packagers,

Sorry for all questions.  I'm still trying to navigate my away through 
the nooks and crannies of the submission process.

While following the instructions in

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

the "Add Package to CVS and Set Owner" step referred me to

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

I'm presently following the "New Packages" instructions of the second 
document.  They tell me that I must make a Bugzilla comment (presumably 
to my approved package-review-request ticket), containing the following:

   New Package CVS Request
   =======================
   Package Name: R-Matrix
   Short Description: R module, Classes etc. for dense and sparse
     matrices and matrix ops
   Owners: tom(a)moertel.com
   Branches: FC-6 F-7
   InitialCC: tom(a)moertel.com

It's pretty clear to me what ought to go in each of the required fields 
except Branches.  I guessed "FC-6 F-7", but the 
PackageMaintainers/CVSAdminProcedure page says:

   Valid branch names currently used for Fedora:
   FC-5 FC-6 F-7 EL-4 EL-5.

Should I list them all?  Only the ones for which I have personally 
tested the package?  Some other combination?  What's the guiding 
philosophy here -- more, fewer, or something else?

Thanks again for all your help!

Cheers,
Tom

Decide which branches you're able to test and maintain. R is pretty
consistent across FC-5, FC-6, and F-7. I can't vouch for EL-4, EL-5, as
I've never built R there yet. I'll probably end up doing it, as I'm sure
there is interest from the .edus.

You can always add branches later.

I'm going for FC-6 and F-7, then.  Thanks for your response.

Now I'm just waiting for my 'fedorabugs' group membership to clear so I 
can set the fedora-cvs flag on my ticket in order to get the CVS module 
created.

Thanks again for all your help.

Cheers,
Tom
