The list was asked early in the RC2 cycle about whether Yum or Apt was 
the choice, since up2date does both - and the concensus was to yummify 
the repositories...

I wouldn't think it would take much to aptify them, especially since the 
resources I've seen for other RHEL extra repositories seem to be going 
to apt (Dag, FreshRPMs, AltRPMs, etc.)

Go for it, really - I'm not sure I can convince John to mirror the 
aptification onto the primary server.
