What I am referring to is to package the contents of http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/buildgroups into an rpm being shipped as part of Fedora (e.g. as /usr/share/mock/buildgroups) and to let Fedora's standard mock configuration (/etc/mock) refer to these files on a local disk. This would avoid mock having to contact http://b.fp.o each time it is invoked (avoids network traffic). It also avoids local mock builds to fail when b.fp.o is non-reachable.
