Maybe you'll want to step up too :-) I'm wondering if those involved and most active in RPM Fusion these days should first discuss if shipping libdvdcss in RPM Fusion might be the better solution...

FWIW, I'd love to see this in RPM Fusion and would be willing to review it.  I know there's some history behind the fact that it's not in right now, but I don't know any of the history, so I don't know if it's still applicable.

[...] Food for though, let's discuss.

The more important question is what do we really gain by moving libdvdcss from livna. It only needs an update every few years it seems, so does it really matter where it is housed? Julian

It might worth noting that RPM Fusion distribute libaacs and there was no real discussion on the legal aspect although I explicitely mentionned this point as well as the status of libdvdcss.

I see Remi's builds have now been put into rpm.livna.org, but why did F15 i386 get the el6 build rather than the fc15 one?

It seems it's all been sorted out now, correct rpm versions are at the correct locations. However, I've noticed that out of all the currently supported distro releases, the F14 and EL5 builds are missing. Not a big deal for F14, but EL5 might be a nice addition.

Thanks Remi and Anvil, this is much appreciated.
