We have set up a wiki page about the project here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Toolchain/Watermark#Markup_for_ELF_objects We would very much like this to be something more than just an internal project, and so we are reaching out to you for your opinions, suggestions and advice. If you are interested in being able answer questions such as 'how was this function compiled ?' or 'is this library compatible with this application ?' then please take a minute to have a look at the proposal. Thanks very much. Cheers Nick
