Yes, I have still gotten some after this up2date change.

This is my temporary setup in  /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources where I have 
added a couple of mirrors to selectively use by uncommenting one that I 
think may be responsive (these lines end in "development".)

I double commented the lines for fc2 to remind me to open those up later.

Of course, look out for line wrap in the lines below.
