I am on list.  I haven't put up yum repos for our bits yet.  Is there 
interest?  Not hard if there is, just haven't done it yet.

When we release our accelerated HMMer in short order I presume people 
will just want to "yum install hmmer" or something like that?

We have put up specialty packages for a few end users/customers, that 
might have bearing to a wider audience as well.  Please let me know if 
people prefer yum to pulling them down and installing them.
