The "dummy" RPM that goes and checks things out of CVS is a clever idea, but
might be fatally flawed for two reasons: (1) anonymous CVS access to
sourceforge has been problematic, and (2) the current CVS repository has all
the latest features...but no whole-system-testing or "semi-guarantee of
operationality" that end users need when they use an RPM.

Right now I have people who tell me whenever the current CVS build is broken
on various platforms. I can always use more of such feedback, but what we
need more at the moment are "build-masters" who periodically build a set of
binaries on their platform, run the test suite to verify that things pretty
much work, and package the results for public consumption.
