Public SPEC files please

[Dag Wieers]

Hi,

Since I don't know who to address this to, let's address this to all :)

I guess it's time again to ask/beg for making those SPEC files public. All 
of them if possible: Fedora, Raw Hide, RHEL, fedora.us, livna.org.

If you want people making compatible packages, find problems or doing 
general QA, having those SPEC files available instead of SRPMs is crucial. 
I don't want to go download another 5MB to have a 5kB file and see 5 bytes 
changed.

Also a mailinglist that holds either the CVS commits or daily diffs of 
these files would be very (*VERY*) appreciated, although if these SPEC 
files are available I can do that myself easily.

So Red Hat, are we ready for that ? Or shall I wait another year ?

PS Some of it could even be "legally" required in the sense that eg. 
fedora.us started its amavisd-new package from my SPEC file and I can't 
even peek to see what exactly they have changed. Bugzilla has some broken 
links, but there it ends. No SRPM, no SPEC file, no clue :)
