+koji - RPM building and tracking system
+=======================================
+
+Koji is an RPM-based build system. The Fedora Project uses Koji for
+[their build system](http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/), as do
+[several other projects](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Koji/RunsHere).

+
+Key features:
+* New buildroot for each build
+* Robust XML-RPC APIs for easy integration with other tools
+* Web interface with SSL and Kerberos authentication
+* Thin, portable command line client
+* Users can create local buildroots
+* Buildroot contents are tracked in the database
+* Versioned data
