Subject: Important infrastructure announcement
The Fedora Infrastructure team is currently investigating an issue in
the infrastructure systems. That process may result in service outages,
for which we apologize in advance. We're still assessing the end-user
impact of the situation, but as a precaution, we recommend you not
download or update any additional packages on your Fedora systems.
We'll share updates as we develop more information. Those updates will
be published here on the public fedora-announce-list:
https://redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list
Thanks for your patience as we continue working on this.

With all due respect for Paul, an announcement like this truly belongs on the
mail list, not on some list only 2% are subbed to.
I think that Gene is absolutely right. This kind of announcement should
be made where it can reach most of Fedora users.
A request to not update or download additional package is very serious.
Specially because I read this after updating my to boxes. I would say
that somewhat worry.
Regards
Marcelo.
