Things to maybe work on at the hackfest at fudcon:
high priority:
modifying createrepo to make sqlite db files and populate repomd.xml - done
adding dbversion as an attribute to the entry in repomd.xml for the dbs
stuff to do to make the above work:
add an option to generate db files from xml - done
bring in code to generate db files from xml using yum-metadata-parser -done
add yum-m-p dep to createrepo
make the code generate the dbs, get a checksum of the files uncompressed - done
compress the files (using bz2?), get a checksume of them compressed - done
write out the repomd.xml with the above data. - done
finish up the repo creation. - done
modifying the repo populate code to grab the dbs instead of the xml files by default - done
look at what's needed to support media with repos (ie, pushing down the support from anaconda and making it more generic) - done
optimization places - do we have any obvious wins for speeding things up that can happen in 3.1.X?
lesser priority:
implementing tim's code for making yum-utils just subclass out of YumBaseCli
talking through the unittests we want to work on
--groupexclude
swapping out error codes?
talking about thinning down all the methods in yum/init.py
replacing rpmUtils/updates.py with yum/updates.py using pkg objects
