If you follow the discussion tree you´ll see that the discussion quickly
morphed in all sort of excuses against DeltaRPMs like "my  repository
doesn´t implement it so it negates any benefits, switching to another
compression  may be better" or that "why don´t we offload cpu usage to the
repos" (ridiculous, if someone agrees to host a repository they´re already
contributing their bandwidth and ftp/http server, it´s the distros creator´s
job to actually, gee, create the RPMs).
