But the repos are in place and users that install the F8-RC can just continue to use it and will get F8 automatically by running "yum update" -- that's what a lot of people want afaics. But there are likely other and better solutions to make that work. A F8-7.98 tree in the proper place for example that gets symlinked to the final tree for a while later, so users that run yum update get the final bits automatically, without adjusting their yum configuration.
