Yeah. Do you want to take care of that for the EL branch? Then I'll

Yeah, as mentioned some minutes ago in
http://lists.rpmfusion.org/pipermail/rpmfusion-developers/2008-November/002611.html
There is a lot of things that need improvement. Our docs are one area

And yeah, all of the repos contain a directory repoview/ that contains 
the repoview data.

As mentioned: CVS works anonymously as well. But that's also not 
documented in our wiki :-/

Yes and no. Yes, someone has to click the "sponsor" button in FAS (/me 
normally). But that's about it if you are already a sponsor or a normal 
contributor in Fedora.
