Hi I was just going through the docs in Packagekit and also the code and i was just thinking on how about Packagekit having a plugin kind of stuff where in it also does the job of  an offline repository creation which can be written on to the DVD. I thought its a good feature to have too. This helps in avoiding the same packages to be downloaded everytime and it could be shared too. I could start working on this if you feel that what i speak makes sense. I was talking to Richard on this few days back and i had told him that i would come up with a design note ( a small write up ) on what it would be like and how i propose to do it. Let me know your suggestions and comments. Cheers, Balaji
