Since you knew about the discussion and endured the thread, I understand 
that you would rather head off a debate on this list and would rather 
point to the archives for more information. It just sounded to me when 
reading the post to be presented as we should have not asked here but 
known to read the fedora-development list archives in advance.

Keeping the c is fine with me if it keeps rpm updating systems better 
that it would if the c was dropped. I was satisfied with the "Fedora 
collections" response on the fedora-test list when I asked the question.

I probably will resubscribe since there is a lot of information that the 
discussions provide. I'll check out the Fedora weekly news to see what 
it provides.
