Hats off to Fedora package manager (NewsForge)

Joe Barr talks about Fedora in this NewsForge article. "Package management -- the way we install and maintain applications -- is a problem for many Linux users. One of the projects working on the problem is Fedora, a project that wants to be recognized as "the Debian of Red Hat.""

What happened to "autopackage", a project that was based on RPM, dependencies free, apt functionality, but not Distro specific ? ..., last article that i can recall it was even talked about including it in LSB standards.

Did it died ?,... can anyone give a clue ?
