Graphical yum for Fedora Core 3

Now there's a tool for people who like GUIs. People like users. Users 
could update their machines? Dude!

Next might be an enhancement to yum that it wouldn't have to read every 
header for every repository on your list before it gave you a response 
concerning what you want to load. Maybe it already does that and I am 
just looking at slow access to each repo, but it seems to be a long time 
between "Downloading headers" and "XXX is installed and at the latest 
version". Sometimes it's longer than it takes to actually upgrade to the 
latest version. I only have three repos to check.
