Hello.

I'm not sure about PLD 3.0 (I'm not using it yet, its in very early
stage of developement) but for PLD 2.0 you will only need following tree:

dists
   |--- 2.0
          |--- PLD
                 |
                 |---i686 (or other arch you are going to use)
                         |---RPMS

If you wish to use PLD on production machines I strongly recommend
version 2.0. It is in RC stage but it is really stable. If you'll go for
3.0 keep in mind that not all software is available for it and you may
expect major changes in this line.

APT is only available for PLD 1.0. But if you'll use poldek for lets say
one month you will love it :)
