Hmm, my Bug 152085 has been fixed in Beta 6, YaST2 now remembers the sources 
when they are added, yippee, and thanks guys! But there is a new one, 155797 
that it doesn't remember the user set order and reverts back to the default 
order they were added in... You're getting there ;-)

I was having problems getting anything from gwdg.de Factory for the last 
couple of days, it would download a few packages, then complain that the 
source wasn't available... I've got to prepare for my lecture at the Uni 
today, so I won't have time to re-try it until this evening (ironically my 
lecture this week is on Testing :-D).
