Hello,

I sent some file contents a few days ago to show the results I was 
getting in reference to sequential merges of repositories in different 
combinations.  I haven't heard back from anyone on this...just curious 
if I should open a ticket on it, if everyone is just busy, or if this 
just wasn't found to be an interesting problem.  Not sure of protocol, I 
guess is my question here.  I usually try to find out if something is a 
known issue before submitting a bug ticket.  Any constructive 
suggestions?  Should I submit a fix for review or is there a fixed set 
of developers working on createrepo?

Jon
