This may be self-induced confusion, but I thought I remembered a Fedora
source repository from two or three years ago.  
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/5/source/SRPMS/

When I go to the FedoraWiki I cannot find a repository or site for F8
source rpms.

The howtoforge.com site only makes reference to the FC5 and FC6 kernel
srpms.  I have googled and found no Fedora 8 source repository.

Should I get my source (tree?) from the kernel developers (kernel.org)
or does Fedora have a source source?  If so where is it? I would like to
start with a source copy of what my system is already using.

Or, am I searching using the wrong search criteria?
Or, do I have everything all mixed up?
