Hi Kevin, Great! Yes- if the Fedora squeak-vm rpms aren't a good solution right now, it would be best to just install our own vm as the Ubuntu version currently does. I can install Fedora on my machine with virtual box and do a little testing when you need it. It's been a while since I played with it (about 7 years probably), but I should be able to find my way around well enough to do basic testing.
Just use SVN - I don't really know what trac is or does either. If you need to change the source other than just adding the spec file, let me know and I'll make a fork so the two versions don't cause problems for eachother, but hopefully you won't have to. I recently checked in some changes to the icon files, (removed the #1 from the end to make scratch.png instead of scratch1.png), but I think that's all that's different from the last tarball - or maybe some minor makefile fixes that just clean things up a little better but shouldn't change the output. Scratch On!
