Thank you very much. I am in phase of preparing packages for the first
review and I'll appreciate your help.

Can you specified "much more activity" please? We would like to
package this software that consists from 4 separate packages and we
are ready to contribute by other packages, for example, we would like
to add Metalog that is not coded by us.
I thing that we have no chance to get sponsored directly in Fedora
because of non-free software as we found in guidelines. Maybe with 3rd
software such as Metalog.
I have a question about form of spec file for binary package. I am
thinking about fixed dist and arch field. It is the right way to
create SRPM directly for the target system, that can run the binaries
? What Ferdora release are you prefere for the first review ?
Thanks and have a nice day
