+1 here. If we use the fpaste client tool, it seems it could simply
be adjusted in the RPM to point to paste.fp.o.
I know there have been discussions in infrastructure before about
hosting a paste service. I think the issues were:
- Dealing with the spammers is a pain.
- It's django based, and we currently don't have any django setup in
fedora infrastructure.

I wonder if
fpaste.org is using an open pastebin software. I don't
see sources for
fpaste.org anywhere, but I did notice that there is a
django based pastebin on the
http://fpaste.org/about/ page.
I think it is django based.
I will find out and update this thread.
