The decision of "RPMS.os" rather than "RPMS.core" was based upon:
1) fedora.us is not permanent, so our tree will disappear in the future 
when the merger is complete.
2) We needed to launch the tree quickly when the time came, so for 
simplicity we copied the identical structure that we used for RH8 and RH9.

I haven't heard any discussion about moving to RPMS.core but I am 
certainly open to the idea.  We would need to discuss ways of making a 
smooth transition for all clients though.  Panu's upcoming apt requires 
reconfiguration of the client with his interactive mirror choosing 
program, so perhaps that would be an opportune time to make the switch.
