... unless the manual package submission and building procedure puts you
off. ;-) Whether there're ways for you to contribute packages via other
ways than the "fedora.us-like bugzilla package request procedure" at
bugzilla.livna.org, you'd better talk to <anvil at livna.org>
Basically, the repository is an open community project like fedora.us,
using the same guidelines and policies, probably adjusted slightly for
productivity and a "just-works" philosophy.
