well actually dag is building matts stuff too so its all in one repository. hes building some of my newrpms.sunsite.dk stuff too i will most probably need 2 days and a week until i can up newrpms for fc4. sorry to all for the delay but actually i am just plain to busy at the moment with other things. gonna try to complete it as soon as possible for fc4 x86_64 and i386 to get more info about the current status id recommend to use the freshrpms mailinglist or #rrpmforge on freenode.
