It is still not something I want to do to a released product, or even Fedora 7 after the feature freeze. The generation of the delta rpms, the layout, the use of the plugin, etc.. these are all codepaths that need more exposure/testing during an open development phase. I think it's great that you guys have gotten it to the point it is now, and I really look forward to seeing it get wider use once we start up Fedora 8. I just don't want to add new features/functionality into 7 and 6. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
