Okay, sounds good, so I basicly only keep a devel branch (no use for
other identical branches then I guess, especially since I cannot tag
them), build that and ask you to the result over to FC-5 (and possible
others, but in this case only FC-5).

Wouldn't it be a good idea to use symlinks for this then, or can't the
mirrors handle this? With symlinks we would get a real save in diskspace
and bandwidth (only mirroring bandwidth, but still). The same (symlinks)
can be argued for the i386 packages currently copied into the x86_64 repo.
