Thx

Hmmm. I suppose some people will want to use the Fedora and RPM Fusion 
updates repo in addition to the release repos; is that easy to do as 
well? And what about development/rawhide? IOW, these three afaics should 
work (nobody hopefully will enable the updates-testing repos during 
install):

http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/10/i386/
http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/updates/10/i386/
http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/development/i386/
(os s/development/rawhide/ ? Or both?)

No need to hurry. If it's to complicated that we just leave everything 
as it was.

Might be a good idea. But it's not that badly needed for Fedora, as 
Fedora users normally don't have to type the URLs to enable the Fedora 
repos, as they are hardcoded in anaconda. But for the updates repo it 
might be a nice to have in Fedora as well.
