That's there so that people can easily get off of rawhide when Fedora 9
is released. For now magic happens so that you get the rawhide repo
even when you ask for the fedora 9 repo via the mirror handler. (If you
take a look where Fedora 9 will be eventually at specific mirrors you
won't find anything.)

However what you are running is very close to the final release. Only very
serious bugs are going to be fixed between now and release. Other updates
are queuing up and will be released at the same time. There were 110 updates
pending for Fedora 9 (some just for updates-testing, rather than updates)
at bodhi.
