Hello, 

Adam Williamson wrote today in reply of one question (made by me) : 
"Hmm, actually, maybe it currently doesn't, but it definitely has
before:

http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/updates/testing/20/x86_64/co
mps.xml

But basically, any repo can have comps data and dnf will respect it;
you can set up an external repo with comps data that lists some package
from that repo as being in the `standard` group, for instance, and when
it installs the `standard` group, dnf will include that package. AFAIK
this has always been intended to work. I'm not sure how often it gets
tested. "

Goggled and found http://rpmfusion.org/comps , so maybe we should add 
rpmfusion-comps repo (to archive) , in

    https://github.com/rpmfusion-infra/rpmfusion-comps/ 
 

like fedora-comps , btw comps was talked here in rpmfusion in 2007 [1]
, and if we need generate comps.xml , we also may talk in Appstream ,
we need generate something isn't it ? And since remxis depends on
comps.xml (If I am correct), also talk about RPMFusion remixs, not
propose generate the remixs , but at least update remix specs [2], and
be able do remix in a local machine . 
About appstream [3], can I add/update the missing packages for Fedora
23 ? and close the review request after that? 

Cheers,
