I am thinking about using this metalink service to create my mirror
lists instead of parsing the publiclist page. I hacked something
together. Could you please verify the resulting output? Script attached,
run it like:
DBTMP=/tmp sh fedorasources.sh

Thanks.

I am not sure how to interpret the urls, and rawhide repositories are
maybe something that needs to be requested explicitly?!

Ok, thanks. My guess is that stuff in /development/* is not reliable,
unlike /releases/* contents.

Best regards,
Eduard.
