This is due to three reasons:

1. SuSE has specific rules how they build their RPM's (Look at the SPEC files 
inside of a Source RPM). I try to respect these rules, but the real details 
are known to SuSE staff, but not to me.
2. I would need to have a distribution _before_ it's available "in the wild", 
so that they could include it in their distro. 
3. Sometimes i'm simply too busy to provide a RPM in time.

BTW: I did not know that i have a @licq.org email adress...
