I know someone is working on a rewrite of some of the stuff dealing with
repodata and comps.xml. I notice today that the names of the files in
repodata have the hexadecimal checksums prepended. Is this the new
"standard" or is there a bug in the generation scripts?
It's a new standard. The repodata files are uniquely named which helps
many things such as proxies.
Is there a reason why the uniqueness part is prepended rather than
appended? It's kinda hard to tell which file is which when browsing
repositories.

I realize that you probably won't browse the repodata directory too
often, but just in case it didn't make a difference, I thought it would
be kinda nice to be able to tell one from the other, on the few
occations where you actually might need to do so... :-)
