Yep, I can put one together.  You do mean 'FC3' and not 'FC5',  
correct? :)  What do you think is better - to create separate RPMs  
(one for each arch), or to have all the repo configs in one RPM and  
then just have people enable the correct one by hand?  I'm assuming  
that we're going to leave everything disabled by default, but what do  
people think?

Personally, I think having one RPM with all the repo files in it  
(disabled by default), and also including the FL GPG key is the way  
to go.

By the way, where to store the GPG key on FC3?  I think /etc/pki  
wasn't brought around until FC4, so I am thinking that /usr/share/doc/ 
fedora-legacy/ would be a good place for it.
