------- Additional Comments From adam at spicenitz.org  2008-05-17 20:48 EST -------
I have been working on some (experimental, private) packages for coda and
related libraries (since I work at CMU and share an office with the Coda lead
programmer).

They are accessible at
/coda/coda.cs.cmu.edu/usr/agoode/devel/packaging
or
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~agoode/coda-packaging/

Some recommendations (as found in my packages):
 * Splitting out /coda into another package. That way you avoid some disaster
when trying to upgrade coda-client during mounted /coda. I call this package
"coda-filesystem", which follows other Fedora conventions, but is a little odd
sounding.

 * Use coda-client as the service name for the client, this is more intuitive
and follows how the Debian packages are.

 * Split out gcodacon

 * Ship a venus.conf that sets the coda directories to places in /var/log,
/var/run, etc


Something needed but have not done yet:
 * Add /etc/udev/makedev.d/99-coda.nodes with contents "cfs0"
