Ok, thanks Bill, I didn't know these branches existed.
We should put this information (branch names, etc) in the wiki
somewhere, or in the status pages.
There's no real standard, though.
It would also be nice to have status pages for the different
maintained releases: FC5, FC6, and rawhide. I don't know how
complicated this can be, but I could help out with it if needed.
The biggest issue is that not every package has branches; there
are some (s-c-tools, mainly) that use the same (or similar) source
for all supported releases, while things like initscripts or anaconda
have branches.
