CVS & rsync RH 9 updates are available for testing:

Have you set up yum yet to query the different chains versus what you have
installed and list what is available specific to your install? That is an easy
way to keep track of what is available.

Another alternative is http://transition.progeny.com/.

Actually, I am using both right now to see what eventually gels. I also
monitor the redhat and fedora announce lists to see what is being released for
those systems. However, I am impressed with the effort and dedication of the
folks associated with the FL effort.
