request: dm-raid45 kernel module

I was unsure whether to post this feature request on the bugzilla or here, and since I found no feature request queue; here it is. In F11 (and previous), dm-raid works great on a great number of controllers, also the highpoint 1820 controller that my wife has. However it does not work if you have a raid5 array that you want to use. She just converted to Linux from Windows and wants to have access to her data. I have tried to compile the kernel module myself, but I am at a total loss as to how to achieve this without rolling a complete custom kernel. So, I want to request this kernel module in the hopes that someone will want to make a package for it and maintain the package. The module itself seems well maintained by redhat and resides here: http://people.redhat.com/~heinzm/sw/dm/dm-raid45/ I ask here because the fedora people have said in no uncertain terms that they do not want to include it until it is in upstream. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=498544 (among others) On the other hand, RHEL/Centos seems to have the module included. But that doesnt really help a whole lot. This package would make it possible for dmraid to support raid4/5 on most low-end/onboard controllers supported by dmraid today afaict. Sincerly Hans Kristian Rosbach
