relatively short so I pasted it below.
# Example releases.list.
# The official version is here:
http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/releases.txt #
# This file contains a list of available Fedora releases.
# Format is as follows:
#
#[Release Name]
# - Header for this release. Typically: [Fedora X (Codename)]
#version=FLOAT
# - Required. Version number for this release.
#stable=BOOL
# - Optional. Marks a release as stable/final. Defaults to false.
#preupgrade-ok=BOOL
# - Optional. Marks a release as usable with preupgrade. Defaults to
false. #eol-date=YYYYMMDD
# - Optional. Gives the date on which the release stops getting
updates. #mirrorlist=URL
# - Mirrorlist URL for the main repo for this release.
#baseurl=URL
# - Single URL for the main repo for this release.
#installmirrorlist=URL

#installurl=URL

#
# One of (mirrorlist or baseurl) is required. If those trees do not
contain # boot images (like Fedora 8's Everything tree) then an
