Just to answer question for anyone who is looking for Fedora Core 1 now
(like me)... :-)

It seems that FC1 will be a little delayed.

There are internally, although I don't know if they were made
publically available or not.  I believe there would be high value
in making them publically available though for some external
final testing, but I'm not sure what the official plan is.

mkj:  Any chance we can push the latest test ISOs out for people
to do final/semi-final testing?

(This feels odd replying on bottom to a mail that was replied on
 top.  Probably looks very confusing to people reading it too.
 Ah well, I refuse to reply on top, which is broken, so I'm sure
 people will deal with it, or start a "Why reply on top is
 considered harmful" flamewar or something.  <grin>)
