[users] Re: Request for swish-e and Sman

[J Robinson]

Also, I forgot to mention:

It seems that a new release of swish-e is likely in the nearish future,
which is why I've been working towards getting a .spec file set up  for that
version.

The last release of swish-e did include a specfile in the tarball that
worked, and is what the current dev version is based on.

There aren't that many differences between the last release of swish-e and
the current dev builds of that branch.
If you'd prefer, I can move toward getting a spec file for the last release
going instead, if that make more sense for rpmforge!

Thanks again,
jrobinson
