Is it maybe possible to give already a little bit of information about this 
fedora build system? For example what i'm interested at: what is the minimal 
set of packages which are installed within each buildroot? Is it possible to 
give a list of packages for each distro/arch? People who are willing to 
contribute, can already start with modifying their spec files according to 
this lists so they can be added faster when the cvs is open and the build 
system is ready.

An example: is gcc-c++ installed by default or should it be included in the 
BuildRequires of each c++ program?
