Fedora Frog is used by administrators to ease the task of installing many applications and files that are not installed by Fedora Core. It installs the extra repositories needed by Yum and allows the administrator to remove any of these packages.

Pretty much all new code.
I am currently working on an update that will add support for Fedora 10 and 11. It will remove all support for previous versions of Fedora. I am revising the list of packages that it installs because some of the older packages are no longer needed or in some cases have not been updated in a long time so are no longer relevant. In other cases I am adding packages thatare now available through the new RPMFusion repositories. I hope to finish this major update within two weeks.
