perhaps, would need discussion on club-volunteers. Everyone has to do it, 
and the scripts have to parse everything correctly. Given the amount of 
time/money that is currently going to club infrastructure I wouldn't bet 
on this. 

 I did start naming everyting <version>.92mdk to distinguish them from
cooker stuff (like we are doing for security updates now).

I would to raise another point here quickly, but it needs its own thread: 
shouldn't we force release specific rpms? Too many people are using cooker 
rpms on stable version. Too many people are using rpms for different 
versions on their stable version.
Can't urpmi complain about this? Perhaps not for noarch rpms, but 
certainly for binary stuff it would be nice. It probably would require 
each package to get a release tag.
