Hi Eric, it will be different depending on if you are talking about fedora core < 5 or FC5 and newer. For those like FC3, and FC4, we will provide our own package; for now I've named it legacy-yumconf. Those packages will not be incorporated into Fedora Core, they will need to be installed by the user of their own free will. I think that everyone is in agreement that for these packages the legacy base and updates repos should be enabled by default.

For FC5 and newer, the plan is to have a legacy.repo file included by default. I assume this would be included in the fedora-release RPM, which is what provides the other yum repo files, but that is up to the Fedora Steering Committee.
