okay, that wasn't clear from the earlier emails. Why don't we take this
one step at a time:

Steps:
1. get rid of the bluecurve bits and fix up redhat-artwork to be noarch
2. start the package reorg for all of our artwork

How does that sound?


With regard to number 2 is there anyone outside of yourself who might
have a good enough understanding of where all the art is to comment
appropriately?
