For those that have been waiting, RPM Fusion repos are now
available.  RPM Fusion is the merger of the Livna and FreshRPMS
repositories (along with Dribble), with a strong adherence to
avoiding issues with anything in the Fedora repositories.  This
should drastically cut down on "repo hell" in the Fedora space
when it comes to packages that cannot be included in Fedora
for various legal reasons.

P.S.  Packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) are also
planned, for those that could not be included in the Fedora
Project's Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) for the
same reasons as Fedora.

I don't have a "favorite Linux distro."  I use, develop
and support community efforts, often built around Linux.
Technology and solutions are my focus, not dragging in
assumptions, marketing and other concepts which dominate
non-community developed software, which I left long ago.
