I am not sure what you mean fall into this new category. None of the
channels listed above seem to be in
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/ [Nor are some of
them on ftp://ftp.redhat.com/ in a form that could be used to build
file/package conflicts from.]

Could you define it a bit better for me?
