I think some words on how the workflow from an external consumer would be 
beneficial?
I understand we cannot be prescriptive, as each may have different internal 
workflows, but which might be interesting is does the model place any 
constraints on their workflow? Maybe there is none.
What is the vision of an external product  vendor for example working with this 
model expected to operate?
For example, the last step in the diagram is the download server - so is that 
the egress for them?
Is it expected that they replicate the picture internally? They will probably 
be forced to.
Should the build against pre-build binary rpms, or rebuild themselves?
In summary - a nice presentation, but a go-to-product perspective missing for 
me.
