If you would like to maintain this package in Fedora yourself, see 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers

The spec file will need some slight changes for Fedora, e.g. "License" 
should be "GPL+ or Artistic".

If you're not interested in supporting EL-5, some legacy spec file 
elements can be dropped to simplify things, e.g. BuildRoot.

If you're not interested in becoming a Fedora packager yourself, the 
module will probably get packaged by someone else as and when it becomes 
a dependency of something they're using, which might be soon or it might 
be never.

Cheers, Paul.
