Hi Jonathan and thx for your offer to help:

Here are some info on the wiki about the infra:
http://rpmfusion.org/Infrastructure
tracker bug for Koji migration:
https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3023

There are several ways to contribute to the infra without the needs of any
keys. The main idea is to test application and to adapt them to RPM Fusion.
such rfpkg (rpmfusion frontend to rpkg) pkgdb2 bodhi.
For example success was made by ktdreyer by publishing the cvs2git
conversion script:
git://fedorapeople.org/home/fedora/ktdreyer/public_git/rpmfusion-tools.git
so we already have this step done.

A good start would be to get familiar with the way the fedora
infrastrucuture is made.

Thx
