+<PRE>Hi there,
+
+I just imported the RPM Spec File Syntax page in the wiki.
+
+It&#8217;s located here: <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=spec_syntax">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=spec_syntax</A>
+
+Please review this page as it&#8217;s one of the most important one for the
+beginning of the mentoring process, with the RPM Howto page (yet to be
+imported).
+
+Some comments on this page:
+- Patch naming:
+
+I&#8217;m not sure we should go that far for the patch naming policy, and in
+practice it&#8217;s not what I&#8217;ve seen up till now.
+
+Here&#8217;s a proposal:
+Patches must be named in a very explicit manner to make it very clear to
+what version it was originally applied. To that end, a patch needs to
+follow the convention of
+[package_name]-[version]-[description].patch:
+
+ * [package_name] is the name of the package it applies against, such
+ as 'shadow-utils' or 'gnupg'
+ * [version] is the version of the program this patch was developed
+ against, such as 1.0. The name of the patch should not change, even
+ when it is rediffed, because the version allow to see in a blink since
+ when this patch has been there. If you happen to see a patch that does
+ not apply anymore, and rediff it, ask the package maintainer if it has
+ been sent upstream, and why it hasn&#8217;t been merged, and send it
+ upstream if you think it should be merged.
+ * [description] is a short description of the patch's purpose.
+
+Example: foo-1.0-fix-str-fmt.patch for a patch that fixes string format
+errors
+
+- Buildroot changed from the original page
+
+After reviewing it again, I see that some links have to be made to the
+corresponding pages, and an explicit license should be mentionned as
+well.
+
+Thanks for reviewing this page,
+
+Regards,
