Well then, I guess I need to thank you for a great service to the YDL 
community.  Freshrpms has really been a great asset in keeping my box up to 
date. 

That being said, may I make a couple requests? 


transcode (http://zebra.fh-weingarten.de/~transcode/) 

and 

dvdrip (http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip) 

and 

kino (http://kino.schirmacher.de) 

are a great set of multimedia tools for video and audio.  I was able to 
build rpms for each without too much trouble, but it would be nice to have 
them available/updated at freshrpms. 

Thanks again for all your effort!
