Rakesh,

This is VERY exciting!  I posted a message on the Zimbra Forums to help 
gather interest:
http://www.zimbra.com/forums/developers/20313-zimbra-fedora.html

Not sure if you need a zimbra login to view it, so here is the message:

There has been some recent discussion in the Fedora community about 
making Zimbra an RPM and getting Zimbra into Fedora. Fedora Package 
Maintainer, Rakesh Pandit, is ready to lead the effort.
* Wanna help & contribute?
* Already using Fedora and want to see Zimbra available to millions of 
users with a simple, one-command install? :::: yum install zimbra


Check out the ISV Special Interest Group (SIG) at 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/ISV and join the mailing list at 
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listi...a-isv-sig-list

In full disclosure, I do work for Red Hat, but this is such a great idea 
that it seems inevitable for Zimbra to get into Fedora.

Regards,
Jason
