Comment 3 for bug 913192

I think this would be helpful, yes.

I only have 2 thing to add :
1) is the format of repomd specified ? I remember seeing developpers of packagekit and zypper being unhappy with a change of format.

2) can we use createrepo ? is this as fast our current tools ? The slow pace of update and indexes generation on fedora is IMHO problematic ( slow pace being that we have to wait 2 days to get updates-testing on mirrors ), but I do not know if the problem is their tools or something else.
