We have:
mathematica
matlab r13 and r14
maple
nag and absoft fortran compilers
among others.
I don't think there is a place to exchange spec files, though there is
nothing keeping you from posting yours or posting a .nosrc. rpm.
ATrpms would *love* to host nosrc.rpm/specfiles for
numerical/engineering packages!
Get me those mathematica/matlab/maple and nag specfiles now! 8-)
