Skimming the changes to Yum (I've been slacking on my Fedora testing), it
looks like Seth added a "mirrorlist" option.  This will probably allow yum
to use the same mirror list that exists for up2date.  The next battle
would be to keep these mirror lists updated.

Keeping the lists updated is kind of an on-going issue for Fedora also,
and some ideas have been thrown around on how to handle it.  I haven't
seen anything more than talk yet, though.  Perhaps someone out there will
volunteer to host a list of mirrors that they check?
