Mesa-10.2.5 was released - while Fedora still ships 10.1 :/

The bug has been closed as "fixed - next release", so no plans to
update the anicient version of mesa shipped with Fedora 20.
Usually I don't complain, the 6-month release cycle is frequent enough
to keep things more or less up-to-date, but with 10-12 months between
Fedora 20 and 21 things are starting to get rusty.

Are there any unofficial reporsitories for Mesa-10.2 or 10.3 git?
Reason is I've bought a few games on steam and would like to play
them, but the Intel OpenGL driver in mesa 10.1 doesn't work well.
Now with the proprietary drivers I could simply perform an update,
with the free ones I would have to re-compile mesa - which is
something I don't really dare...
