It looks like I am going to be maintaining it in extras. 

I have rpms/spec files/srpms setup on my home site: 
http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/fedora-extras/

It should be showing up in extras cvs soon and then I hope for a
fedora-extras-testing release for both fc3 and devel. 

Note that xffm and Terminal don't currently build on development. I am
going to be looking into that soon. All the rest of the packages build
ok. 

Feedback welcome.
