You can't file a RFE for this. If any acceptable software is not
already in the repository, it is usually because noone has volunteered
to maintain it. If you are interested, you can learn to do so by following
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers
I would be happy to help you get started.
Thanks for the offer: my only concern would be that this is a package
in python (unlike conky) and I do not know python.
If you don't want to do this,
get a Fedora account and add it to the wishlist at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist
Thanks for this also.
Best wishes,
Ranjan
