Hardly completely unmotivated.  The fact that I have spent many hours
of my life helping other people solve problems only to find out it was
caused by ATrpms has caused me to recommend nobody use your
repository.  And believe me, I am not the only one.

The standard response in #fedora once someone says they use ATrpms is
to ask them to remove the ATrpms repository.  This is standard among
everyone in the channel, not just me.

My FUDing is *nothing* compared to the damage your repository has done
by forking Fedora and essentially creating your own distribution.  If
this thread is about FUDing, it should have ended LONG ago.

We are *trying* to get this thread off the FUD issue and onto more
important issues which have to deal with potential bugs in packages.
But you seem to think FUDing is a far more important issue to discuss.
