Fedora already uses yum -- you can do up2date from plain-old FTP servers, 
which is really nice.  In general, it already "feels" like it's going to 
be a lot more apt-like.

Also, dulug (dulug.duke.edu) is already hosting two mailing lists -- 
Fedora-legacy and University Linux -- whose goals seem to be to provide 
errata and back-porting support to certain Fedora releases.  

I'm actually very excited about Fedora.  It's starting to look like it 
will be the best of Red Hat and Debian put into one distro.
