In order to ask my question I feel first I must quote from your 
reference email...

The following packages need to be removed from you installation prior to
using up2date:

  ant-devel
  bcel-devel
  commons-beanutils-devel
  commons-collections-devel
  commons-digester-devel
  commons-fileupload-devel
  commons-logging-devel
  commons-modeler-devel
  compat-gcc-g77
  jakarta-regexp-devel
  mx4j-devel
  servletapi-devel
  tomcat-devel
  xalan-j-devel
  xerces-j-devel


Are these being permenantly removed?  Will they no longer be part of the 
final distribution and therefore not part of up2date?  It seems as 
though you guys keep removing more and more of the -devel rpms.  While 
this is fine if you are using the RHEL products for desktops that are 
being used for word processing or reading email, it seems as though you 
are forgetting that a lot of end users are DEVELOPERS too.  WE NEED 
-DEVEL PACAKGES, STOP REMOVING THEM!!!!

Okay I will stop screaming now.
