is there an explanation of the various fedora DL URLs and what they correspond to?

  once again regarding docker (but really a more general query), i'm
trying to clarify the various sources of fedora packages WRT which
release/update/testing/rawhide version they correspond to.

  for example, i'm assuming that the following URL is the absolutely
top level of all possible packages for fedora in all its
current incarnations:

 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/

is that a fair statement? so i just want to clarify the subdirectories
there. first, i'm assuming that:

 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/

represents the contents as they were distributed at the time of
official release, yes?

  next, i'm guessing that "updates/":

 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/


represents only *normal* package updates for each official release, so
that ".../updates/22/" are package updates for f22, etc. i also see
".../updates/23"; i assume those would be updates for the current f23
release and test candidates, is that right?

  then there's the "updates/testing" stuff for each release:

 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/testing/

representing additional available packages if i choose to enable the
"updates-testing" repo.

  and, finally, there's rawhide:

 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/

if i want to live dangerously.

  the reason i'm asking this is that i'm trying to collect a list of
docker-related fedora packages with a brief explanation of what
they're for, and i ran into the following quirk(?).

  currently on my "updates-testing"-updated f22 system, i have an
installed package named "docker-selinux". but when i went digging
through the fedora package db looking for docker-related stuff:

 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/*docker*/

that package is not listed there anywhere. it appears in rawhide, and
in f23 updates-testing, so why is there no mention of it in the
package db?

  is all this written down somewhere? thanks.
