Always good to hear. I admit that I am of mixed feelings about the direction they are going. For a Standard user workstation point of view I have to say it does make sense. But it would make enterprise implementations much more difficult.

Note that I will attend the European Fedora developer conference in about 3 weeks and I'll be able to talk to the RH package maintainer in person (we know each other for quite a while... and had quite some beers ;)).
