It has been discussed in the past that we should have a repository

the rawhide kernels with debug turned off to encourage more users to run
the latest upstream snapshots. That repository now exists. You can
enable it by dropping
http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/rawhide-kernel-nodebug/fedora-rawhid...
into /etc/yum.repos.d and doing a yum update.
This will contain the (almost) daily rawhide updates built with debug
turned off.
Bugs against this kernel should be filed in bugzilla against the rawhide
kernel. Any questions or comments about the repository itself should be
sent to the kernel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org list.
Thanks,

Yes, more people running rawhide would be great.
I think 1) the more people know about this and 2) the easier it is to
activate) the better.
For #1, how about posting also to fedora-devel, maybe get it on Fedora
Planet and let Jon at
lwn.net know?
For #2, how about adding an rpm to rawhide to enable this secondary
repo? So people can just 'yum install rawhide-kernel-nodebug'?
