http://svn.mageia.org/soft-cleaning/status.html#monitor-edid
says "- README: Some reference to the Mandriva mailing list and
bugzilla will need to be changed to Mageia ones"

Do we really want to?
What is the point?
I think we can package this tool as-is, as a tool provided by Mandriva
like if we were packaging a non distro specific tool developed by
RedHat or Debian or anyone and let people report their bugs upstream
if the README says so.

If someday it becomes unmaintained or for any other reason, we can
fork it, but currently I think of it as an external tool and see no
reason in importing it into our svn

I did not read the full list but I guess there are other standalone
tools that we don't need to fork into our svn.

Opinions?
