Hi,

maybe someone of you reads an opensuse-packaging ML. I started a discussion 
about adopting [1] of Fedora Packaging Guidelines for openSUSE.

Benefits are:
  - they structure is better than ours
  - we could compare a differences between conventions and work on unify

I asked an original author of the documentation, Tom 'spot' Callaway from 
RedHat, about it and he respond me that content is under Open Publication 
License [2][3], so we can use it as a base for SUSE Packaging Conventions.

I downloaded a content from fedoraproject.org and have two problems:
  - Where's  api.php for en.opensuse.org wiki? We use a non-standard layout 
for wiki and I don't know how to get an access to it. I want to use it for 
import and for tracking a changes in pages (it would be useful track and 
synchronize changes between wikis).

  - Fedora Packaging.* pages contains a ':' as a separator, so you have a 
Packaging:Guidelines, instead Packaging/Guidelines - this is not very regular, 
but it should helps to avoid possible conflicts.
