I see.  Practice makes perfect. :)

Well, not necessarily.  As this is the first drupal module in Fedora, this would
be the place to decide that.  The versioning as I have it now strips ouit the
drupal core version and leaves just the module version.  I handle the drupal
core requirement in the Requires.

My assumption going forward is that there will only be one major version of
drupal in each Fedora release, so that I should probably put a 'less than'
clause in the Requires.  The catch is that this would mean that I'd really need
to coordinate the updating of drupal core with all the modules.  I suppose I
could look at perl and it's modules as a model for how to handle that.  

Not being a heavy drupal customizer myself, I'm curious how quickly after a
major version release modules get updated.
