No. I gave up on it after it failed miserably on a couple of test 
upgrades in the early phases of f18. May-be it has seen improvements 
since then, but I didn't look back at it, since then, because I found 
the procedures outlined on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_17_-.3E_Fedora_18
so far worked reliably.
