Hello Phil,


I've taken some time to package correctly the synchronisation tool.

It can be downloaded here:
  ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distributions/slsoc/soc/SRPMS/dim-1.0-1.slsoc6.src.rpm
  ftp://tp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distributions/slsoc/soc/i386/RPMS/dim-1.0-1.slsoc6.noarch.rpm
The GPG signing key is:
  ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distributions/slsoc/6x/i386/os/RPM-GPG-KEY-jpc

The package itself contains three tools. The synchronizer is "yumsync".
I've also supplied a documentation in html & pdf format. The doc is also
available online here:
  http://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distributions/slsoc/6x/dim/doc/Manual/


Regards,
