Same here.  We had a bunch of rhns* packages come in last night, and 
then this morning on a manual up2date of our satellite.

I opened a ticket asking why I wasn't notified of an outage.

RH is claiming that since their satellites were up, it's not an outage. 
  However, if you ask me, broken software that prevents up2date from 
working on *my* end, that's clearly an outage.
