we've just had a long conversation on the list about exactly what a

would someone want to download 5.0 when 5.0 + updates is 5.1 ?

In my case the situation is reversed: Why share 5.1 when I already have a copy of 5.0?

because when you yum update, the delta is going to be a lot larger when you install machines with 5.0 - so why not install 5.1 and just get lesser number of updates ?

At the moment, if you install 5.0 and run a yum update, you can be downloading upto 1.6 GB of updates.. Not sure if you want to do that.
