New pacage, not sure where to start, or pehaps I have started but don't know where to end

All, I am working on distributing a log analysis utility wrote called petit (http://opensource.eyemg.com/index.php/Petit). Currently, I am treating it more like a regular application than a python module because it comes with several/many data files that make it work correctly. I created a make file, for my sanity, to help in creating RPMs and DEBs. Since my package is not in Fedora or Debian, etc, it makes it difficult for me to use/build without having the make file. I then build RPMs and distribute them to all of my RHEL5 servers, but it works on my Fedora desktop too. The problem is, I have detected that this is not standard for Fedora packages. I am torn on what the right vs. practical way of handling the packaging is and I would like to make it compatible with Fedora so that it could eventually be distributed. I have read through the Fedora packaging guidelines for Python and understand the basic concepts, but I am not sure if I should even distribute this as a python module. Perhaps, in a perfect world, I would have my Makefile/build tools to create up to date RPMs/Debs, and it might also make a distutils version for Fedora & Debian packagers? I am looking for some advise/thoughts if any body has time. Thanks in advance, I really appreciate any help.

Hi! Does anyone know if/when python 2.5 or 2.6 will be included in RHEL? python 2.4 is certainly solid, but I'm trying to run fabric and it requires at least 2.5 -martin
