Other packages I'm interested in maintaining, or helping to maintain

 * SAGE: the open-source computer algebra/mathematics framework (this is a huge package with many dependencies and will require work from multiple maintainers).
 * Bioconductor: bioinformatics packages for R.  Many of these packages are now included in Fedora, Pingou is trying to make this a Feature.
 * E-Cell: GPL-licensed cell simulator for systems biology
