=) I do have a bit of a TODO list started, but I just need to find
the time to do it. This is all spare-time work, and I find myself
with a little too little of that right now. As soon as I finish two
larger projects (both close to completion), then I'll do some more
work on rpmproc, but right now the other projects are more important
(one of which will (I hope) impact the Mandrake community in a very
positive way).
