garn. but i'm allergic to making commitments. maybe we can persuade the
existing fedora maintainer to defect to rpmfusion! ;-)
for now i'll just have to add this to my list of "things i'd quite like to
maintain if i can ever get over the commitment thing". sorry about that.
thanks for the v quick response!

Did you try to ask the Fedora maintainer? Tell him that isn't not that much
work to get this package into RPM Fusion -- no review is needed and he doesn't
need a sponsor if he's sponsored for Fedora

BTW, there's also kooldock in the same boat, though that one still uses KDE 3
libs so maybe now is the right time to EOL it.

Hi:
I am current cairo-dock maintainer on Fedora.
As cje commented cairo-dock is removed on F-11+ because
RH legal felt cairo-dock may infrindge a patent owned by Apple.
I don't know well how rpmfusion think of patent issue, however
if rpmfusion can allow cairo-dock and if it is *not so much
hard* to maintain cairo-dock on rpmfusion, I can import
cairo-dock into rpmfusion.

RPM Fusion does not care about software patents, that's one of the reasons it
exists. There are already many patent-encumbered packages in RPM Fusion.
Assuming there are no other licensing issues, the package can go into RPM
Fusion Free.

Now I applied for rpmfusion cvsextras membership but
it is not needed? And is it sufficient that I write CVS request
for cairo-dock here (after I am sponsored on rpmfusion if needed)?

Thorsten, would you tell me the proper procedure for this?
Sorry, was busy with other stuff.
I sponsored you in FAS and created the branches (F9, F-10, devel) for
cairo-dock.
You now need to set up the plague on your system (see
http://rpmfusion.org/Contributors), checkout "cairo-dock" from cvs-free and
import and build it just like you would do for a new package in Fedora.
We have no bodhi, so you don't need to take care of filing a update request
once the build finished. The package gets pushed to testing with the next push
and moved to stable about 8 to 14 days later if nobody tells me "don't move it
please". HTH

Thank you for CVS procedure!
Now
- rebuilt for devel-free branch:
http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/build-status/job.psp?uid=3593
- F-10/9 cairo-dock is still in Fedora, so I won't build this
on rpmfusion-free.
Now closing. Thank you, everyone.

Now [...]
- F-10/9 cairo-dock is still in Fedora, so I won't build this
on rpmfusion-free.
If you sooner or later want to build a update feel free to do it for RPM
Fusion. We normally don't replace packages from Fedora, but in cases like this
(Package gets dropped from Fedora, but is still available in the "everything"
repos for curret releases) is fine.

Umm... cairo-dock seems to have disappeared from Fedora
also on F-9/10 (why?)
I will rebuild cairo-dock also for F-9/10 on rpmfusion-free.
