This is my experience on a second machine. I'm not planning on 
commenting further on any of these until there is a new package set 
available to install and retest.

1) The install hung at about package 859/1017 on my first try. The media 
test passed before the install. I think is was on the gthumb-something 
package. The install was setup to do all three classes (office, 
programming, web services). The second try made it through ok.

2) After yum-updating to the dev repos for core and extras (which are 
currently frozen) my devices no longer hotplug. Running gnome-mount 
using the [-p or -m, -d] options on the command line says :

Cannot mount volume.
You are not privileged to mount the volume 'USBDISK80'.

...for example.

User or root same thing.

This device hotplugged fine prior to updates, although it was not 
recognized at boot. Had to unplug/replug it to get a desktop icon.

# mount works fine.

3) The system-config-users GUI allowed me to create a new group, but 
adding a new user to the group just disabled the GUI and made it spin. 
Had to fall back to /usr/sbin/useradd -g to the new group.

4) Thunderbird mail client crashes on every exit (this is seen running 
it from the command line).
