I never did like all the extra repo files for each repository.  I liked
the idea of one file per family, so there was one file for say
freshrpms, one for atrpms, one for extras, one for core/updates, one for
Legacy.  Each having sub-repos such as testing/devel/whatever.  But
thats just my opinion.  Easier to edit one file than 4.  Fedora steering
folks tell me that I can go w/ what I prefer.  Thoughts?
