I took a stab at updating it for this derivative, but don't know enough to know if what I did was complete or correct. My intent is to only provide files for the tagged releases that are complete/correct/needed. I've added your spec file (not updated yet, but I will) to the SVN trunk and will keep it up to date with whatever changes you provide. That way when I release the next version, the spec file will be there and this will be easier. I'm all for putting the packaging information into the tagged releases when I know it to be correct. I answer to your why question, I think for 0.2 I copied all the files to the tag and then only included what I saw as the useful files in the tarball. For 0.3 I think I decided there was little point in that and I should limit the tagged branch to what I knew to be correct and needed. The next release will have your spec file and (let me know which they are) any other of the files that you needed.
