And any mention to the development repos could be replaced by http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RawHide which would be the renamed and redirected /Development pages. This would make a better association of the /development/... paths and the name rawhide. All assuming we want to get the name "rawhide" back to its former glory, because - as said - FC1 was trying to phase it out for whatever reason (maybe someone back then thought that RHEL's internal development tree would keep that name?). -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
