If you have questions, run into problems or would be interested in
contributing please let me know:
I wanting to package something new. Is this the right kind of tool or does it require the package to exist in git? In any case I'll have a crack at it and let you know how I go.
For packaging new software you may want to take a look at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Linux_Tools_Project/SpecfileEditor/User_Guide#Creati... . It makes use of rpmdevtools templates and letting you even fulfill some of the templates tags. Install with yum install eclipse-rpm-editor. If you plan to package an eclipse plugin or maven based project there is also http://eclipse.org/linuxtools/projectPages/rpmstubby/ . Install with yum install eclipse-rpmstubby.
Note that these are separate projects from what Severin is working on but they are complimantery. Let me know if you need any help or you find a problem.
Regards, Alex
