Review:

Good:
- rpmlint checks return nothing
- name is fine
- meets PackagingGuidelines
- license ok (GPL), license matches source, COPYING included
- spec is in am. english, legible
- sources match upstream (I presume, since you only gave us a spec)
- package compiles fine on fc4 (x86)
- no extra BR, no missing BR
- no locales
- no shared/static libs
- package is not relocatable
- owns all directories that it creates
- no duplicate files
- file permissions ok
- %clean ok
- macro use is consistent
- code not content
- nothing in %doc affects runtime
- no need for -docs, -devel

APPROVED. Commit this thing into CVS already. ;)
