* Allow parallel installation of packages (similar to kernel)
* Emacs erlang mode should work out of the box. See [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=491165 rhbz #491165]
* Upgrade CouchDB to 1.0.1 in Rawhide and EPEL-6 and consider updating in F-13 up to 0.11.x. No luck for EPEL-5 because of old curl.
* Upgrade Erlang up to R14A in Rawhide. See [[Features/Erlang R14]] for the details.
* Upgrade CouchDB to 0.11 in Rawhide and EPEL-6 and consider updating in F-13 (and, perhaps, in F-12). No luck for EPEL-5 because of old curl.
* Upgrade ejabberd in EPEL up to 2.1.4 (already in epel-testing).

Reviews

Potential packages

  • erlyweb
  • Yxa
  • erlang-mysql-driver - A native Erlang MySQL client library. One of the runtime dependencies for ejabberd. Please, not that there are two forks - one from P1 and another one from Yariv Sadan. All these three projects are based on the original work by Magnus Ahltorp.
  • erlang-fd_server. Please, note that similar functionality (binding to privileged ports) may be obtained with kernel > 2.6.24 with capabilities.
  • Jungerl is also contains some very interesting libraries and applications, however not all of them are in good shape.
  • User contributions page at trapexit contains some handy user-submitted utilities.
  • Nitrogen Web Framework.
  • egssapi - Erlang GSSAPI and SPNEGO API (one of the runtime requirements for Yaws).
  • eldap - Erlang LDAP API. A patched copy is bundled with ejabberd.
