I've been wanting to bring this up - I think our /Contributors page
needs some parts rewritten, and a bit more added in certain spots. We
should also create a page with guidelines specific to RPM Fusion (kmods
should be mentioned and licensing also comes to mind so we don't have
libdvdcss all over again).
Also, I don't have a tremendous amount of experience using CVS so I may
be completely wrong, but getting the CVSROOT right is annoying; I've put
the following in ~/.bashrc to help:
* alias
plague-client-rf='PLAGUE_CLIENT_CONFIG=~/.plague-client-rpmfusion.cfg
plague-client'
* alias cvsf='export
CVSROOT=:ext:USERNAME@cvs.fedora.redhat.com:/cvs/extras'
* alias cvsrf='export CVSROOT=:ext:USERNAME@cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/free'
* alias cvsrnf='export
CVSROOT=:ext:USERNAME@cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/nonfree'
Maybe we should include this too in /Contributors?
Sounds like a good idea (I use something similar).

I think so... One of my own thoughts about what we should be is a place
for users to receive high quality packages that compliment the Fedora
ones. IMHO, we should aim to be *the* place for users to get everything
they need that's not included in Fedora.
