Hi there,

My name is Juan Rodriguez, and I currently maintain a pair of packages for
Fedora 10, 11 and 12.

One of those packages I maintain is gnome-do, (and gnome-do-plugins), with
gnome-do-docklets along the way. However, it has come to my attention that
gnome-do's "docky" interface violates US Patent 7434177 [1], which in turn,
crippled gnome-do by removing docky from the Fedora's package.

I'd like to request for it to join the RPMFusion repositories instead.

Thanks for your time,
