See my other post - fancy the job of the Koji maintainer for the RSEL
project? :)

Hi Gordan.
Thanks for the offer :) It is to early yet to tell if I (can) be an
Arm EPEL maintainer.
Until I get the koji-build + epel-sync to work it would be a manual
maintenance to build the packages and I would prefer to avoid that and
concentrate on the packages that does not go trough the system
automatically (needs patching).
@Jacco: Do you have a

for epel6 as well?

If you want to step up as an EPEL maintainer, I'd be happy to send
you a Toshiba AC100 (Tegra2, 512MB of RAM) to help you along. You'd
have to set it up yourself but it's not exactly difficult - easiest
way would probably be to install Ubuntu on it (well supported,
automated install last time I checked), then reconfigure the boot
loader to tell the kernel to mount the rootfs off the SD card or
USB stick with RSEL.
I have done a lot of hacking over the past few years on an AC100,
and some of the early bootstrap builds of RSEL were built at
least in part on one of those (they were awesome value for the
performance, not to mention the convenience of the form factor).
Haven't really touched any of them in a while, though, since
the later package builds were made on ARMv5 hardware, because
I found some of the packages ignored the target arch build
options and did their own auto-detection in configuration
stage regardless, which caused them to produce binaries that
were either broken or ones that required an ARMv7 rather than
an ARMv5 that the distro targets. It was relatively rare, but
would have been potentially time consuming to weed out the
offending packages because I was doing most of my testing
on the AC100 (and later on the Exynos Chromebook) which
wouldn't have caught the problem. For something like EPEL it
would be a lot less critical.
