Please forgive, this is my first rawhide to release experience.
Which (yum) repositories[2] should I be following to keep my machine
up-to-date for testing and reporting against the F8 set? I can't get
the ISOs because of no torrent access, but I want to be able to give
good feed back through the planned GA release date[1].
I ask because a few messages[3] have been confusing (to me) in the
last few days.
Thanks.

Enable base and updates and disable devel repository. They are currently
redirected server side to the devel repo but will automatically redirect
to the release repo when Fedora 8 is released.

I'm even more confused. I presume "base" means "fedora."
I have these enabled, and no others:
[root@potoroo ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/* | egrep '^\[|enabled=' | grep
-B1 enabled=1
[updates]
enabled=1
--
[fedora]
enabled=1
[root@potoroo ~]#
I've not seen any updates for some days, my last are these:
[root@potoroo ~]# rpm -qa kernel\*

I am surprised there's no newer kernel-xen
I am sceptical that this is accurate, I thought that updates were being
made past the date of this package:
[root@potoroo ~]# cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora release 8 (Werewolf)
[root@potoroo ~]#
