I guess "extra repo entry" refers to the ability of Anaconda in Fedora
Development tree to use any yum software repository during installation
itself so that you can select and install packages from Fedora Extras
and any custom defined repository by providing the url
There are a couple of screenshots at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tours/FedoraCore6
IPV6 and other changes are documented in the Anaconda package changelog
and in the current release notes beats
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Installer
Note that the above beats covers things in terms of features and we
would want to rephrase things so that the end user *benefits* are more
clearly stated. I will do that in the release notes before the general
release of Fedora Core 6.
You can talk to Jeremy in #fedora-devel Freenode IRC channel or mail
katz(a)redhat.com (cc'ed) to discussion these things further.
It is also likely that the installer will have a different theme before
the final release.
