Hi,

I built dnf-0.3.0 today, for F19 and rawhide. It has around 60 new patches since 0.2.22, but they all together achieve just one thing: relying on librepo[1] for metadata downloads instead of using dnf.yum.repos and dnf.yum.YumRepo. These two modules are now obsoleted and once removed completely (soon) they will decrease the total LOC count of dnf by another two thousand lines.

Because these changes definitely have the potential to break things it won't be merged back into F18, I don't want to disturb the few DNF users there, instead I'm going to let the librepo backend settle during F19 stabilization. F18 will only receives fixes for serious issues, dnf-0.2.23 for instance brings fixed user-agent string [2]. This version of DNF can be browsed on github as "maint-f18" branch [3].
