Because I had more interest in the users of rpm on distros (initially) based on Mandriva Linux, keep in mind that that the 'rpm' package alone doesn't make up nearly all of it's distro integration (think of in terms of policies, additional helper scripts, policies, tools, dependency solver etc.)..
Reason for posting to rpm5.org and not rpm.org is simply because I'm actively involved in that project and it's where I will do most of my development directly. For any new features and ideas (be it from this or in general), it's usually trivial to port it across different rpm versions, regardless of originally being implemented in rpm 4.9/5.3/4.4/3.14159/x.y.z, and I'd be happy to assist with it in one direction or the other. :) I do believe you guys have an interest in R&D, with ideas and features requests as well? :) -- Regards, Per Øyvind
