What are your like and dislikes,  I'm not married to any thing!
What I am partial to:
	1.  A primary packageList area with
		a. Package Name
		b. Installed version if any
		c. available version
		d. location of avail ables (with the growth of public reops I feel it
is important to be able to pick and chose where your pkg comes from)

	2. A Secondary Info area providing a chosen pkg's info(I am pretty
happy with the synaptic notebook)

	3.  Ability to interact with primary packageList to add pkgs to
transactionSet for install, upgrade, or remove.

	4.  Ability to  doAction     based on transActionSet or upgrade all.

	5.   repository setup dialog
	  
 Oh! It's my lovely part of pygtk. Try to check PyGTK FAQ section about
it if you don't already!

I made shortcuts keycombos for the FAQ, APIs, and several examples :)

It's been such a state of flux that I have been hesitant to make it
public.  I setup a project at sourceforge a few weeks ago.  So we can
move this thread to vyum-devel at lists.sourceforge.net to avoid cluttering
the yum list.  I'll put up my cvs tree up tonight at:

pserver:anonymous at cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/vyum
