Hi Tom, 

I don't believe that download policy is an attribute of a content view, only of 
a product repository, as packages aren't really owned by CVs, they are just 
referenced by CVs. So this change would really be at the product/repo level and 
affect consumers of that repo. You should be able to change the download policy 
of a repository at any time regardless of whether it is referenced via a CV or 
not and then initiate a sync (such as if you are moving from on demand to 
immediate). 

Sorry if I'm not following you,

In your example of download policies how would this work, though? Each CV 
doesn't have its own copy of a package, right? I thought that CVs were 
basically just symlinks and database entries and that pulp was unaware of them. 

I don't mean to derail and I'm sorry if I'm focusing too much on one specific 
example. You noted download policy and http/https publishing. Is that where you 
would draw the line or would you also include mirror on sync, metadata, etc?
