Thanks for the kind words.No problem :)
Now that I am subscribed to the Fedora Config list I see that there isn't much traffic so can you summarize for us what has and has not been done? Also what we can do to help you?look on the fedora-config-list and you can see some of that discussion there.
I've been rewriting considerable portions of yum with this in mind.
it takes time, b/c I'm trying to keep from making a bunch of the same mistakes and getting rid of the 'download all the headers' requirement that everyone seems to hate.

- install/update/freshen/remove single/multiple packages via ftp, http, dir, ...

i could not find these improvements. afair in system-config-packages fc2t1 were some new features, but it seems the these were removed
So are the redhat devs still working on this or should we (the users) take it upon ourselves to start a project on sourceforge?
