That's not what i meant, I meant this:

This is how mandriva currently does it:
release/foobar-1.1-1mga2010.1
updates/foobar-1.1-2mga2010.1
backports/foobar-1.2-1mga2010.1

This is how it would be:
release/foobar-1.1-1mga2010.1
updates/foobar-1.2-1mga2010.1

Basically you drop the backported patch in updates (like I said 
earlier, this would only be for apps that don't have child dependencies 
and where the new release is not a major new release, just an 
incremental release, or at least where it's an evolution not a major 
rewrite).
