I will agree with this. The one thing that is required for many

FC3 *does* come with a configured yum.conf file, complete with pointer to a
mirrorlist so that everyone's not trying to download everything from
download.fedora.redhat.com.
A new user file with
an icon on the desktop would also be a great idea with common answers
such as how to get mp3 and DVD's to play on Fedora.
Wouldn't that mean an official endorsement of one of the "unofficial"
repos?
It is common for
people to keep asking the same quesitions within the lists.
True; given though that so many people can't be bothered to read the release
notes, which are prominently advertised by anaconda during the install/upgrade
process, I suspect the same questions would continue to be asked.
