Well, without seeing the changes I cannot comment really on how to
merge them. Maybe some larger parts could be merged by one person
at Red Hat, maybe we should just put out all those bugzilla lines.

Depends on individual developers. Some have their own devel plan and
just updating the spec file to a newer version is often not an issue,
so having a bugzilla about this doesn't really help.
For a few other developers scann your list might give good suggestions
on what packages we still want to update.

Get your diffs in, more exchange on getting packages updated is certainly
something we want to improve. Danger will be that the closer we go to
FC3, we will stop updating to newer upstream releases and concentrate
more on bug-fixes.
