Sneck - whats the current status with the Fedora package? Can I list
it on the download page as being being part of the distro?

No, and not for a couple of weeks yet I'm afraid. There are a few hacks (as we know) to get Jokosher into RPM form and integrated into the desktop. I'm in discussion with one of the package reviewers who has been a huge help. He is estimating that it will have to go on a review cycle about 3 more times before I get commit access to the build system and it becomes installable using yum from the Extras repository.

Those building for Ubuntu and trying to get it into Universe should also prep themselves for similar intense Q.A. on their .deb

This wont be the case for later packages as the first one really is a baptism of fire to prove that my packaging is up to scratch. Once this is done I intend to work on the autopackage which crosses over into what we have been talking about wrt non-GNOME users I believe.

What would be a big help is confirmation on that fix following the alsa-audio code removal. I think a couple of people were looking into this and testing it? Any news?
