I am having difficulty seeing the benefit of having it as a subdirectory
rather than as a separate repo that may contain the same packages
hardlinked ??
I dont think mirrors restrict the repos that they mirror ??
I appreciate that it would need to be added to yum conf, but that would be
the case anyway with a subdirectory.
As rhwas is a separate product I propose that we have a separate repo for
it.
