So if I enable the release repo instead of devel repo on the release
date, can I get a system same as one installed from scratch? I'm very
curious of this question since I have been using fedora 5 devel since
test 1 and have configured it a bit. Really don't want to re-install
everything.
The development tree might move past FC5 before the release date. If
you watch the rawhide reports on fedora-test on a regular basis you
would have noticed that the number of updates have been generally low
approaching the release. At some point the development tree would move
back into the open development for FC6 again and you will see the flood
gates open up with a large number of updates again. Having said that,
its recommended that you do a reinstallation since there might be
packaging and configuration cruft in the test/development releases that
you might create problems that wouldnt have occurred on a clean
installation . In short, if you a tester be prepared do a clean
installation on the GA release when it is made available for routine work.

Will the debug option get disabled approaching release date?
Yes. That might have already happened by now. I haven checked that.
