With Fedora 7, we're introducing a targetted spin idea, that is a compose of 
the packages for a particular target, like Desktop.  In order to signify what 
target a given spin is for, I introduced the flavor argument, which as you 
noted, will append the flavor to the path.  This way you can have the same 
topdir but with many different flavors.  It is purely optional though, if no 
flavor is specified, it will not be used.
