Fedora Core 1 Transferred to Fedora Legacy

With the release of Fedora Core 3 Test 2, the Fedora Steering Committee
would like to announce the transfer of Fedora Core 1 to the Fedora
Legacy Project.

This means that updates for Fedora Core 1 will no longer be
posted at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/.

For more information on the Fedora Legacy Project, or if you wish to
join the team please see http://fedoralegacy.org/.

I'm working on a modified version of my yum.conf to point to the Fedora
Legacy repos and mirrors, and would like some extra eyes to take a look
over things. It's my hope that I can put together a working version of
this so new users can easily integrate it into their FC1 setting with a
minimum of headache.

I don't think the mirrors are populated quite yet, but wanted to get a headstart on things. If you have some fixes or suggestions, would you please post them? It's my hope that this yum.conf would go to head off the potential for repeatedly asked questions, by providing a copy-and-use solution for those users needing one.

Thanks,
Clint

Here's how it's shaping up:

# This is a yum.conf for Fedora Core 1 with updates from Fedora Legacy.
# I've tried to maintain a similar outline to Maxwell Kanat-Alexander's
# yum.conf found at his excellent and informative fedorafaq.org site.
#
# Note that I've included several mirrors that are close to *me*. This means
# that you will want to have a look at this list of mirrors to
# similarly configure mirrors that are geographically close to you.
#
# <http://www.fedoralegacy.org/download/fedoralegacy-mirrors.php>
#
# I've left many of the "alternate repositories" commented out, as well
# as those repositories for "unstable" or "testing" files.
#
# To import Fedora Legacy's GPG signature do this as root:
#    rpm --import http://www.fedoralegacy.org/FEDORA-LEGACY-GPG-KEY
#
# If you don't want to check the signatures, then comment out those lines
# that are gpgcheck=1
#
# The Mozilla SeaMonkey repo is added for those who want to update Mozilla.
