Hi,

Are there any yum experts here?  I thought it would be a good idea to 
get a yum repository established for the Wine RPMs held at sourceforge.  
I for one would love to have the latest build of wine installed as soon 
as RPMs are available on Sourceforge.

yum-arch seems to be the command to create the repository headers but 
I'm not sure how you would manage this with the round robbin sourceforge 
downloads.  I think some other sf project have managed this.

Anyone out their who can help?
