Assuming the arrows up and down near the copr name are for karma, I find the
UI for this is a tad confusing. I've seen it before reading your announcement
and had no idea what it is.
(This is true especially before refreshing the browser cache, it gets a bit
better after.)
Bleh, I faced the cache issue as well. Let's take a look if we can do something
about it...

This is really interesting feature for some of the projects.
Can this be used in official Fedora specfiles
It is meant to be no-op as long as build system doesn't define it. So at
least technically there's no problem.
or does it need a guideline?
I don't think it is forbidden by guidelines (we can not use macros for
other distributions, but that is a different topic). Dunno if we need to
have an explicit ACK for this. Ideas?
