== Introduction ==
The [[Pidora ]] Package Review Process is based on the [[:fedora:Package Review Process|Fedora Package Review Process]]. The main differences are:
* Pidora does not have a package scms or packagedb instance (yet!)
* Pidora does not have a "packager" group
== Pidora or Fedora? ==
Packages should be included placed directly into Pidora only when they are not useful on any platform supported by Fedora. If a package would be useful on i386/x686, x86_64, or armv7hl, it should be added to Fedora, and will subsequently be picked up by Pidora.
On the other hand, packages that are very specific to the Pi -- because they use Pi hardware such as the GPU or bcm2835 I2C/SPI/GPIO (and are not generalized to be useful on other development boards) -- then those packages should be packaged specifically for Pidora.
