Note that there is a typically a few weeks in which this change will take
effect. If you don't do an update during that window, then you will miss
the switch over and continue on with rawhide.

Also if you manually change your repo files the fedora-release updates won't
replace the existing ones and again you will keep tracking the repositories
that you are currently using.

If you have repositories other than rawhide enabled (e.g. rpmfusion), you
will want to keep an eye on them as they may do things differently than
Fedora.
