Introduction, better late than never

[Alan Crosswell]

I'd appreciate help on getting my aprsdigi (http://aprsdigi.sf.net) under
Fedora RPM maintenance. I got started learning how to become a Fedora-hams
packager but it seemed this group had gone silent when I tried to contact
some of the listed managers. I build RPMs myself and use Cobbler with
whatever the latest Fedora distro is to PXE-boot install digipeaters.
