Will and Seth anything you would like to add to testers?

BTW. Great work guys :)

You can get preupgrade here...

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=6045

or do..

koji download-build --arch=noarch preupgrade-0.9-2.fc8 ( fc9 for fc9 )
rpm -ihv preupgrade-0.9-2.fc8.noarch.rpm

If you have koji installed..

There's no use filing bugs just yet since this has not made it to the 
components list
in bugzilla. ( correct me if I'm wrong I did not find it.. )

Claiming the first bug found :)
