I hope we will observe the features of the two systems and be able to see what is good and bad in each, and improve them both. Already there are many suggestions for improvements to the AUR and it isn't even released yet! I see this as a good thing -- more suggestions leads to more ideas which leads to a better product.
As the guy responsible for launching the AUR, I have to say, there has been more than a little deserved scolding for its being later than expected, but there are a lot of things to get right, and we want to get them right. The most important thing is that AUR be secure and useable on launch day. Then we'll polish and add features in some later releases.

The AUR has been recently coded and beta tested (uh...read the arch newsletters..like ever?) http://www.archlinux.org/~jason/newsletters/newsletter-2005-Apr-03.html#tur ...
PS: you're even mentioned in that newsletter, Mr. Krill, and as I read the aforementioned thread of messages, you were even told that the AUR would be on line shortly. I find it hard to believe that you could miss both the newsletter, and being blatantly told about it.
