 I'd like to revive the official RPM builds that stopped few months ago.

 Target distros/platforms:
 - Fedora 16/17 i686/x86_64
 - EL 5/6 i686/x86_64

 Requirements for the VM/chroot:
 - I need root account to be able to install/update/configure packages
 - unshare() syscall must be functional (e.g. OpenVZ has this problem,
 "unshare -m /bin/bash" will fail with operation-not-permitted even under
 root)
 - 20-30 GB disk space; 20 GB is minimum, 30 GB is ideal
 - some minimal Fedora netinstall would be enough, I'll setup the rest

 Ticket#6043:comment:9 has few patches and short description of the build
 process (it's via "mock" tool, which is in turn "rpmbuild with chroots").
