Good Evening, Jeff -

Yes, it did answer my question absolutely.

I am guessing that others are probably wishing this functionality did 
exist.  So with that being said, what can I do to create a yumgroups.xml 
that can be used by the FL project?  I would imagine that there is a 
specific format for such a file, so do you know where I might be able to 
get more information on this?

Thanks a lot
