As you are all aware, Fedora 9 is planned for release at 15:00 UTC
tomorrow, 5/13, about 23 hours from now.

The bitflip will occur 30-40 minutes ahead of this, so that some
mirrors will allow public access by 15:00 UTC.  For your own part, you
can also schedule an 'at' job to run to make the bitflip.

$ echo "chmod a+rx /pub/fedora/linux/releases/9" | sudo at '14:45 UTC May 13 2008'

If using 'at', please ensure you watch mirror-list-d for any last
minute announcements delaying the release, though I don't expect such.


Furthermore, please run report_mirror at least once after you have
synced all the bits.  As of right now, I see we have this many synced:

ISO media:
releases/9/Fedora/i386/iso:  44
releases/9/Fedora/x86_64/iso:  49
releases/9/Fedora/ppc/iso:  31
releases/9/Live/x86_64:  49
releases/9/Live/i386:  50

Trees:
releases/9/Everything/i386/os: 65
releases/9/Everything/x86_64/os: 56
releases/9/Everything/ppc/os: 45


This is out of about 141 I would expect could carry the content.  If
you're having trouble downloading from any of our Tier 0 or 1 mirrors,
please let me and the appropriate mirror admin know.

Thanks for all your contributions to Fedora.  With your help this will
be the smoothest release day yet!
