Is devel frozen?

[Neal Becker]

I built python-which successfully, but it's not showing up in devel.  Do I
need to do something, or is this because devel is currently frozen?  (I
can't run mock on my dblatex package because it requires python-which - is
there a workaround?)

Builds from devel/ are going into dist-f9.  Rawhide is still being
composed from f8-final which is the frozen Fedora 8 bits.  This is so
that we can easily transition early adopters of Fedora 8 to the final
bits on release day without dumping all the F9 stuff on them.  The day
after release (Friday) rawhide should start seeing F9 content.

I am not quite up to speed on the proposal.. is this planned to be
changed for F9 and later?

In F9 we hope to be able to stage the F9 bits into the final location
(or something close to it with redirects) that we can point people to,
while allowing F(??) builds to show up in the traditional rawhide
location.  We just don't have the capability of doing that this release.

So what change is needed to mock to point it to the correct repos?
