kwizart build a new totally new nvidia driver (180 -> 185) for devel/F11
release repos:
http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/build-status/job.psp?uid=4139
http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/build-status/job.psp?uid=4138
It might be quite an important component, but problems with it can
(seldomly) damage hardware and if something is wrong with that package
it can bite users for the next 13 months. Thus I'm quite unwilling to
push this to the F11 release repos at this point with F11 only three
days away. A few days updates-testing for F11 IMHO is the way better
place IMHO.
Thus I didn't push it yet. Does someone agree/disagree with that
(kwizart obviously will disagree, asking more for other opinions here)?
If enough people disagree then I can still push it, but if something is
wrong then it might get hard to fix (which would cost quite a bit of my
time, which I don't have right now) because rawhide might move on
today/tomorrow and thus would need another round of mock adjustments on
all builders.

My user perspective: I've been using the 185 driver for a couple days
now without any problems. It won't be a problem for me if me include
185 in the F-11 release repo.
My packager perspective: I agree with you on this. The 185 package
didn't get enough testing time. But can we ship the 180 driver in the
F-11 release repo at least?
