Have you tried the one at 

 http://www.fedorafaq.org/#yumconf

I heard this was good.   I still had some problems with FC1 with it
but I think that was b/c it was more up to date than the OS version. 
At least it gives you a lot of choices to play with.  Haven't tried it
with 3 so I can't comment.
