Excellent news!

My sincere hope is that the SRPMs will rebuild transparently. If
there's a working ARM port, we can make a repo available.

Right -- let me know if anything is clearly wrong anywhere.

It would be nice if they hung off a top level XS project directory with a master make file that passed arch type, etc., to the component make files. This would make it simpler to clone all the bits.

I don't understand this -- can you explain more?

cheers,
