This won't be the case soon. It may take until FC5, though, so have some
patience
My personal experience of Fedora-Extras has been very negative so
far.
It took months for FC3 extras to appear after FC-core.
Extras is just getting started, so it's not fair to make your judgement
based on experience so far. FC4 extras will be available with the release,
and yum-enabled. FC5 extras will, hopefully, be pickable right in the
installer.
That said, we want to make our software as widely available as
possible.
If someone from the FC community wants to maintain AbiWord for FC-Extras
we'd love to hear from them.
I thought you said you were already maintaining FC rpms. What am I missing
here?
