Well those same groups can be selected and used for installs, etc with yum. Which means you can get all the pkgs red hat recommends for doing a "gnome install" or a "kde install" the yumgroups.xml file is just red hat's comps.xml (or any file made up by any repository maintainer) that lists pkgs in certain groups and how they relate to each other. it's pretty cool. -sv
