some web pages to look at
http://ausil.fedorapeople.org/rebuild.html and
http://ausil.fedorapeople.org/failed.html these 2 pages are updated ~ every 10
minutes. Please drop into #fedora-devel on freenode if you have any questions.
I believe this wiki page should have been included in the announce mail:

For those that don't particularly follow devel day-to-day, the blurb
about the XZ change is pretty uninformative. I've tried to dig back a
bit and it seems the XZ change is to pick up XZ 5.0. It seems the
rebuild was done to fix Delta RPM generation? From a package
standpoint, will that mean that F14 is incapable of reading F15 RPMs?
Does that impact mock?
I'd be happy to flesh out the change a bit more in detail if someone
could point me at what is really changing in terms of XZ compression
and what it means going forward. Better late than never.
