- does not work at all ?
- getting repodata is ok, but downloads fail ?
- how long would say a single kernel update take to do ?

Do you find yumex faster ?
At what part
- listing the available software / updates ?
- downloading the udpates ?
- installing the updates ?

seen some announcements from Rahul about official spins; I understand
they are quite easy to do...
