Hi Peter,

the package looks good. There are just some (minor) cosmetic things:

- I suggest to replace the Summary with:
  Minisip library providing various C++ utility classes

- I'd also prefer a complete sentence in the %description the -devel package:
  This package contains the development files for library %{name}.

- Remove the DOS line endings from the example sources, e.g. with 
  for f in examples/*; do
    sed "s|\r||g" $f > $f.new
    touch -r $f $f.new
    mv $f.new $f
  done
