  As I recall, newer versions of apt support repodata (which yum uses), so 
strictly speaking, he could probably use the same repositories.  Plus, 
it looks like there will be an RPM for apt in Aurora 3 Extras, when that 
comes out, but it's not going to be officially supported, so good luck 
with that.
