Yes, the biggest problem here is time, we simply need someone to get each and 
every package in ccrma, clean it up and submit it for review.

I'm hereby doing the crazy thing of volunteering to do the needed reviews, but 
I do not have the time to push this forward my self atm.

As far as rpmfusion is involved here, there might be a few things which need to 
go to rpmfusion, but that in no way is the biggest problem.
