  'Fedora Core' was renamed 'Fedora' between version 6 and 7, you
will find the latests under the 'releases' subdir:

   http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/

 Please rebase based on Fedora 8 if you a binary rebuild, thanks, but ...

 My own opinion about this is that since xen is packaged as part of
Fedora, rebuilding a package on your side might be more of a problem
than a solution (I mean for official release rather than for testing)
since it's best to keep a coherency. If you have some problems with
the packages as done in Fedora, it's better to get the issues (assuming
any) solved, rather than putting a parallel set of packages, in the end
avoiding users confusions helps everybody in my opinion.

  my 2 euros cents,

Daniel
