As expected I thought of some more pretty big issuses, imho at least, shortly 
after sending the last mail. So I'll do some more "crying" as Henne calls 
it :)  - I think it's constructive input for making it better though.

* YaST2 now installs dependencies without consulting/warning the user first - 
it can be a bit surprising sometimes to see all kinds of packages being 
installed that you never selected.

* Conflicts/deps need to be taken care of one by one, unlike before. Often you 
get a lot of problems with the same reason - which could be easily resolved 
in one or two clean swoops "in the good old days" of <=10.0.

* When you add sources to yast they are always called "YUM", in ZMD they're 
given numbers for a name - the date + some random numbers I guess. Once 
you've added maybe 6 or 7 sources it gets pretty hard to keep track of which 
is which - and there's generally not room for the entire url. Maybe there's a 
way to edit the names that I'm not aware of.

After writing down these issues and the ones before it's becoming apparent to 
me that almost all of these issues are with YaST2. Maybe things actually work 
pretty well with rug/zen - apart from the parse-metadata and update-status 
slowness.

I'll add the above issues to the page Henne set up on the wiki.
