It does appear that updates were available immediately.  After
installation early yesterday from a mirror that was open, I have updated
multiple packages twice, including two iterations of the kernel.  There
is one broken dependency on elfutils, but excluding that lets all other
updates install.

By the way, the new artwork is great, the new anaconda interface is a
welcome improvement, and so far everything I've tried works.
