We will do as suggested. Disk space does become an issue for smaller
projects like Unity though. Can we simply archive the SRPMS for "updates
only", as those are the only ones that change or become obsolete in the
fedora tree, then just point the "GOLD" items to the core SRPMs tree? Or
should we build the SRPM tree of what we have on the re-spins?
The question comes up that, seeing as we do not rebuild any of the
binaries, we only group them into a final package set, do we still need
the source at all?
