Yes, but shouldn't be there a difference between rawhide (e.g. 2.3-rc0) 
and fedora virt preview library (e.g. currently 2.2.1)?
Or is rawhide everything and fedora-virt-preview.repo only the virt part 
of rawhide?
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Virtualization_Preview_Repository
http://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virt-preview/fedora-virt-preview.repo

Nevertheless I don't see any advantages releasing RC production quality 
to the rawhide repository as we expect the release soon.

As my question regarding "support" for virt preview was not answered 
when I had problems and tried it I think I'll switch back to Fedora 
supported repos.

Thank you anyway.
