Where did the Fedora 8 CVS go to?

oke.. now i'm having a little more complex question also about the kernel.
when i do: "rpmbuild -ba kernel-2.6.spec" i get this output within
about a minute:

Wrote: /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.21-1.3228.fc7.src.rpm
Wrote: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/kernel-headers-2.6.21-1.3228.fc7.i386.rpm

(this was tested with the F7 kernel source but i also tested it with
the F8 kernel source. both have the same result as above.. just
another version)

and more but that's what i want to know. now when running the rpmbuild
line i expected the full kernel to be compiled.. not just the headers
and the source rpm. so the question is: how do i compile the kernel
the fedora way?

or is this the way how it should be done:
http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_fedora if that's the case
i will just follow that tutorial. but this (couldn't find it on the
wiki) is important information to get in the fedora wiki.

And the reason why i want to have this new kernel is mainly because
iwl (whatever the name was) just the wireless drivers that should be
alot more stable in this kernel than in 2.6.21
