Until yum has magically transformed into apt it would be nice

Sure, by all means help us. I am not planning to spend any more time
than I am already putting into this. But I welcome anyone interested
in helping with this. (either in RPMforge or rpmrepo)
For one, I have no interest in maintaining a testing and production
repository if that means I have to spend time selecting packages and
transfering packages.
As long as everybody is complaining and nobody is willing to help,
the situation will be the same. You cannot claim any more of my free
time :)
I believe you knew you were breaking yum update for people who are
using your audacity package with the update to wxGTK 2.8. You posted a
message about this on your blog, but not on this list, so I'm not
surprised that people didn't know and posted messages to this list to
complain. Of course you don't owe anyone anything, but replying that
they should use apt instead is just not very nice to your users. You
have every right to say what you want, as I believe you put a lot of
time into this, but blowing people off like that is just putting me
off and I wanted to let you know.
I'm afraid I can't be of any help building packages, but I always try
to help people here with any issues that I know how to solve.
You're generally doing a magnificent job though, thanks for that.
