Fedora Project to Help Revitalize RPM

Posted by CowboyNeal on Thursday December 14, 2006 @08:48PM from the breathing-life-back-in dept.

-=Moridin=- writes "The Fedora Project has announced plans to revitalize RPM, the package manager used by many Linux distros. According to the announcement, 'Job #1 is to take the current RPM codebase and clean it up, and in doing so work with all the other people and groups who rely on RPM to build a first-rate upstream project.' For more information, see the the RPM web site and the new wiki-based RPM FAQ. The issue of RPM's upstream development has been a thorny issue ever since Jeff Johnson, the original maintainer of RPM, left Red Hat."

Oh dear, I shouldn't post at four in the morning. I would point out the tortuous and at times obviously incorrect grammar I used in the comment, but would likely only make further errors.
