Yep. I noticed that over the weekend as well. They were created when 
they weren't available.

It all needs a good clean-out. Remove the ones that are now available 
from Fedora and ensure I have up to date builds of the ones that aren't.

I've started sketching out plans to automate this. The long easter 
weekend looks like a good time to start to implement them.

That all sounds very interesting. I won't be there unfortunately as 
there's an ocean between me and YAPC::NA :) - but I look forward to 
seeing your slides.
