Service is a new concept for grouping of repositories. It is very similar to
the NU type of service known in rug in SLE10 - libzypp downloads an index of
repositories, which can dynamically change.

This way, server admin can e.g. add new repositories to client (think e.g. of
community repositories as a service, where you just add the service and your
system will always have access to the best of breed repositories, or having
a 'development' service that will track factory, then during RC phase switch
to openSUSE 11.1 repositories and after release switch back to factory).

This code might be buggy, as it's completely new.

Stano,

Thank you very much for this explanation. That sounds like an
interesting feature ;) Let's see where it brings us.
