Hi nab,

I've packaged rtsadmin + deps for f14 and f15, instead of rawhide.
Fedora 14/15 users can add this repo:

http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/grover/rtsadmin/fedora-rtsadmin.repo

These are currently lacking docs but are functional.

Do I need to package lio-utils, or will it (imho preferably) be merged
into rtsadmin before 2.0?

Also, RPM really likes to start with a tarball from upstream -- I made
these myself from git for this snapshot, but real, upstream tarballs are
of course preferable, and leads me to ask: when should we expect the
official 2.0 release?

Of course, for rtsadmin packages *you* are the upstream. :)
