That was for repodata.  Unfortenately not a lot is happening
(at least I don't see it) in this area....  Where are the 
milestones, when can we expect something?

Concerning smart: I see that it has the potential to fully 
replace apt.  But sofar it misses apt functionality, like
signature checking, log creation and such.  When this is 
addressed I have no problems at all to use smart.

I really hope that the feedback that I have given will be 
remembered.  Perhaps it is feedback from a really advanced apt
user, but there are people out there that want to use that 
functionality.
