No. I asked for clarification during the presentation and it was clearly stated that this was the technical stuff. What they are gfoing to do is to start TECHNICAL implementation so that _*/IF/*_ (Enough enphasis?) theres is a yes, then it won't take another 6 months or so to launch it. A very reasonable thought when you have worked in a larger orgaisation. Imagine how e would react if there would be an OK in say june on what and how, e.g. only talks about opnSUSE and no technical support.
Sorry but that's not correct, I had some private talks with them and there it was cleary stated for me that they are going to do a forum UNLESS there are some really good reasons to NOT do it.
Then the the anouncement, OK, we will have it done by october. Not a good way to do things.
.) Houghi's XML-Yast repository idea: Unfortunately you weren't there today in the evening when I wanted to talk with you.
Sorry, I had to do some other thing and planned on coming back for at least the Q&A, but did not make it. :-(
Don't worry, there will be a next time :).

I think the best way to make this easy to distribute is to let a community member do it and then just include it.
There is a lot of overlapping stuff going on with YaST, the mirroring and the buld server, so most likely an implementation will be made already on a YaST level.
Well that's what I'm talking about anyway - by simply writing a YaST module you could easily add it to yast :). Mfg, Wolfi
