I deploy widely on RHEL and have been chatting with Thorsten about how I
can help get rpmFusion's RHEL 6 support moving.  I get lots of requests
for the other kernel modules that are in rpmFusion as well.

When I catch the OpenAFS folks grumblings about my packages I always ask
for bug reports and feedback.  I've tried to patch their spec file, but
received little response.  In any case, I need packages that follow the
FHS (although I've considered adding a sub-package that would lay out
symlinks to emulate the transarc paths).  I also need packages in the
same kmod packaging standard as everything else.  They are still using
the original kmodv1 standard.  Basically, packages that are compliant to
Fedora's packaging guidelines.
