up2date doesn't
- Include new package selection
- Have a graphical interface to mirror selection/addition
- Get the download size data right
- Multithread its gui nicely
and lots of other things where it should really look somewhere half between
system-config-packages and up2date. up2date does however also do local files
and stuff so might be a good starting point ?
