Partially, but the core of it is about avoiding users having to change
there repo configuration from "updates-released" to "legacy".

I'd call this collaboration of RH-maintainers with
community-maintainers. Also, community maintained doesn't necessarily
mean lack of quality ;-)

Just sending a notice to fedora-list@ on "legacy took over FC3" and
adding a notice to the "News" on fedora.redhat.com could prevent
confusion and misunderstands.

As Andy pointed out, this issue had been discussed on *-devel, but the
"mountain" didn't show any indication of moving.
