Yes. The question is, is it to preferred to 
require the up2date client to have to know that it 
wants a specific channel, or would it be preferred 
to have a 'default channel' type setting in the 
current database for the host. If it is kept 
server side, the idea would be that the server 
knows: ok, you're hosta.mydomain.org. You need to 
pull your updates from the RH-7.2 channel. - or - 
You're hostb.mydomain.org. You need to pull your 
updates from the rawhide channel. If this data is 
not stored server side, the client would need to 
know which channel it wants to grab updates off of.
