For example on more than two occasions I have mentioned powernowd, which
I believe would be extremely beneficial to any laptop owner. When used
with the 2.6 kernel cpufreq_userspace interface, it allows dynamic CPU
speed adjustment based upon current load. It has been tested to work
well with Athlon and VIA processors, and should theoretically work fine
with Intel SpeedStep too if cpufreq works with your laptop.
Packages will sit forever in fedora.us QA if nobody bothers to even
comment on them. And it is not useful to only say "It builds and runs
fine for me." as this says nothing about spec file correctness and the
security of the included sources. People that want to seriously
contribute to package development and QA must show that they actively
follow each point of the
http://www.fedora.us/wiki/QAChecklist and
consistently give good advice more than several times in order to build
trust.
*shrug* If no one comments, no one cares, and then presumably there's not
that much demand for that package.
I think it'd be better to put efforts towards making it easier to do QA (ie,
things like a CVS tree of specs and patches), rather than removing steps
from QA.
