Could you please address my long-time veto in the 1.4.x STATUS file,
before the same code ends up being included in the 1.5.x branch?
  * r21885, r22076
    Add a new RPM package for the AuroraLinux 2.0 SPARC distribution.
    Justification:
      It is a combination of RHEL3 and RHEL4 distributions with
      characteristics matching both, so we need a new directory.
    Branch: 1.4.x-r22076 (-r22079:HEAD)
    Votes:
      +1: dws
      -1: maxb (It appears that the auroralinux-2 directory has been
                based on an old version of the rhel-3 directory,
                pre-dating some of the difference-reduction work I did
                to try to minimize the unnecessary inconsistencies
                between the various distro flavours. Its introduction
                therefore represents a regression in the maintainability
                of the RPM packaging area as a whole.)
Thanks,
Max.
