Hi all, F12 will ship with a version of Hugin that is configured to 
use autopano-sift-C if available.  Unfortunately the old 
autopano-sift-C-2.4.1 package in rpmfusion doesn't have the relevant 
API.

There is a current autopano-sift-2.5.1 source rpm here: 
http://bugbear.postle.net/~bruno/apt/fedora/linux/11/i386/SRPMS.panorama/

It would be great to have this in rpmfusion, please somebody take 
over this package:

>Anyway, how can we unlock Bruno impossibility to commit to cvs?

I've tried again with a fresh F11 system, my rpmfusion account is 
still disabled.
