On the topic of Rawhide could I suggest a rawhide-announce mailing list
that indicates when a new version of a package has been made available.
Ouch, that'd be one heavy-traffic list :) Especially since updates in rawhide
often consist stuff like "fix typo in description" or "fix blah for S/390
build"
for which you might not really want to download the newer version. Having daily
changelog deltas for updated packages available somewhere, or something like
that would be nice though.
