Hi again,

take a look a Tom Callaway's intro from a conference via:
http://www.google.com.au/search?q=+goodrpmpackages-tomcallaway-2008
{pdf, odf, html}.

step by step:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package

if you are keen on packaging for Fedora distros:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers

I think both fedora-list @redhat and #fedora-devel on irc, are good 
places to be asking questions regarding rpm packaging... if you can post 
what you have done so far with your question (usually to a pastebin), so 
that people can see where you are at.
