I was wondering what is a reasonable frequency to download those files, since I don't want to be blacklisted for abusing bandwidth... Any idea about this? I was thinking of doing it every hour (or more often, if possible).

What about using hermes (http://en.opensuse.org/Hermes) for this? => You'll get a message or something else (see the agents) whenever a src in your watchlist changes. You can take this message as trigger - or just the included diff to update your list. Ask Klass for details.

Sounds cool. Details very much welcome -- being able to poll a website for the changes since last poll could be great. I've implemented a kind of cache (ie, if the md5 & size of the files I'm interested in haven't changed in metadata, I keep the version I have locally) -- so it should already make things better, although it still means downloading metadata from all source packages.
