If you contribute this workload to ATrpms more people will have
benefits from your work! :)

The main part is that there are not that many people interested in
tuxonice on CentOS. Which is why Matthias usually only maintains these
kernels upon request. If you can help him out with the RHEL/CentOS
part, I'm sure he will be very glad!

If you're interested join us at ATrpms-devel.
