>>Okay, what about a webservice where you upload a package list and it
sends you a .tar of what you want to download? The same can be done for
targeted security updates. I'm just not sure if this scales.

>Yes, this is a VERY GOOD idea. Go ahead with it!!.

We can use cloud computing (

from the web.
