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
