some people that will not use it because it's just too big (500MB is

(200MB/mo), I personally, only have 700MB/day.
This sounds like a new yum plugin. "Cap my downloads to X/day" so that
packages that are larger than that cap get marked etc.
Also remember that even though it may produce a 500MB noarch rpm, it
also
means quite likely a 500MB srpm making it 1 gig in total.
Another consideration would be the size of the community behind
vegastrike, if we have 100+ then thats great, if it's only 10 then I
become doubtful over it's usefulness in regards to resources. (Don't get
me wrong, just trying to put a slightly different perspective on it.)
Just my two cents,
