Well I don't know myself very much on how to use both types of
proxies :).

I guess this feature is, first, for experts and second, I need
suggestions and tests by users to ameliorate it.

The list of cooker sources has been deliberately removed because
people used to use cooker for "updating their packages", that
leading with broken systems.

foobillard is correctly displayed under Games/Sports in "All
packages, by groups" sort.

If you talk about "Mandrake choices", as the name implies, it's a
limited choices of packages considered "better". Even the
documentation explains it:

-=-=---=-=---=-=---=-=--
Mandrake choices

This sort order will present you the packages in the four groups
you've already seen during the installation of your Mandrake
Linux. This is the easier sort order because it focuses on a
selected part of the available packages, which are considered to
be the most useful of the distribution.
-=-=---=-=---=-=---=-=--
