One important point in having a local repository is to make installations
reproducible. I could take a snapshot of the currently available packages
on the official mirrors to run my own frozen mirror, or I could loop mount
the released DVD.

This would not work if the official CentOS repository is still in the loop.

Don't get me wrong, I highly appreciate the efforts of the CentOS folks
to keep their distro up-to-date. But CentOS 6.3 cannot be installed
anymore, since it has been wiped off the mirrors.


Many thanx
Harri
