I'm toying w/ the idea of dropping apt support as of FC3.  With the start of 
multiple arches and with apt not being included in Fedora (but yum is), I'd 
rather not deal with the long long metadata generation time, the hassle of 
providing apt packages for each release and the nasty symlink tree I have to 
create to be able to support it.  Apt metadata creation will continue to 
happen for the older RHL releases, and Fedoras up to 2 I do believe, but from 
3 on, I'd rather use the native updating tools provided with Fedora.
