Yep. I agree.

I was just going to say that a problem with vault is that you have to 
update the repository location every time the "minor" version number 
changes. We really want repositories like vault.centos.org/6/os/Source 
and vault.centos.org/6/updates/Source. Unless, that is, we can somehow 
get yum to set up a variable containing a "full" version number like 6.4.
