Please don't top-post on this mailing list.

You can enable all repositories permanently by changing the "enabled=0"
lines in your yum configuration to "enabled=1". But by doing this, you
will end up with a system that bears little resemblance to FC3 (you'll
have all the development and testing packages, so you'll be running the
FC4 test release, not FC3, and it will frequently be broken). By
selectively enabling repositories like you are doing at the moment, you
can get new versions of specific packages with minimum risk of causing
disruption to your system.

Note also that some repos are not compatible with others. Be aware of
what the relationships between repos are and don't enable conflicting
repos.
