For example, look at: http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/updates/1/i386/ Kernel version 2135 is there, dated from December 23. That's the date that specific kernel rpm went from the "testing" directory to the released "updates" directory, and that change started propagating across the Fedora mirrors on that date. I was actually checking that specific kernel update as test of the various mirrors I was adding in my /etc/yum.conf files around Christmas day, and at the time most mirrors I checked had that newer kernel. I'm guessing that the usc mirror is currently not updating itself, and I suspect that whoever is in charge is away since most US Universities are close right now. -- Daniel Robitaille
