cbalint is no longer with RHAT, which may be why he has not responded to
any issues.
ACLs have been opened for cvsextras on:
fftw2, gdal, grass, iverilog, libdap, libgeotiff, mapserver, and ogdi
I'm wondering if Christian would be willing to work on the packages

eventually change his FAS and Bugzilla address to point to his current
e-mail address.
