Agreed. But adding an additional directory (e.g. /extras/4/repodata
and /extras/4/repodata/repoview ) that have repoview pages with links to
SRPMs, i386, x86_64 and ppc won't hurt. Complete mirrors can mirror it.
The other should ignore it, because some links won't work in that case.

Agreed.

I round about once a week use the debian web interface to search for
something. Now and then I use the one from gentoo, too. I suspect that
users of Debian, Gentoo or Suse now and then want to search for Fedora
Packages, too. We should make it possible.
