I've been trying to submit various packages to the Fedora review process
so the packages can be included in the next Fedora release.
Unfortunately, the reviewers are very much sticklers over the issue of
the existence of a valid upstream tarball release that can be downloaded
and verified against the package.  This has prevented me from submitting
several packages for review.  Amongst them:

libipathverbs (there is a release up on the site, but I happen to know
that the OFED-1.3 distro include a tarball libipathverbs tarball with
the exact same version number but a totally different set of files, so
until there is a definitive release tarball, I can't submit this one)

libehca (no tarball exists...of course, this isn't too big a deal for
Fedora since it doesn't really support big iron ppc hardware anyway)

libnes (no tarball)

Most of the other important packages have tarballs up for download,
thanks much for that.  Several of the less important packages are still
missing tarballs for download (perftest, qlvnictools, mstflint, stuff
like that) and will be skipped until they are available.
