The consensus in Fedora Extras could be put like this :
1) Reuse fedora.us package if it exists...
2) If not, reuse freshrpms.net package if it exists...
3) If not, reuse what could have been pending at fedora.us...
4) If it wasn't there, or is too old, or too messy, then...
5) Come up with a new package from whatever source seems best :-)

The main limitation at the moment is that the Fedora Extras submission
process isn't perfectly defined yet, unlike the fedora.us one was.
