Dries tried recovering it this morning but to no avail. This means the backup plan is that Dries will be the primary source for all FC4 RPMforge packages (both x86_64 and i386). It makes sense to start merging Dries and my repository now and think about the future. I will have to reinstall all my build environments and will take the opportunity to revise and document the process. If there are people that depend on eg. RH6, EL2, RH7, RH8, RH9, FC1, FC2 or another distribution, step forward now if you like to be closer involved or like to maintain an older distribution. If nobody steps up I will probably drop RH9 and FC1 support. New packages or updates in my repository are suspended until I have reinstalled my build environments and revised the tools. Don't expect this to be before July. I'll try though. Dries and FreshRPMS will still cover the important packages and are completely compatible.
