I like the idea of jigdo and think it's a great idea for saving bandwidth,
but I don't necessarily see how this will save disk space, which is our
primary issue right now.

Take GRP stuff, for instance -- we're releasing multiple sets, optimized
for each architecture.  So the binary for KDE on P4 is not the same as the
binary for KDE on Athlon XP -- two separate copies need to exist.
