I am sure some one has asked this before, but I can not find it: If
I am on F6.93 Rawhide with regular updates and want to shift to F7
Moonshine, what do I need to do? Will it update automatically into the
release version, or will I continue on Rawhide if I do not interfere
with the updates? If I want to end up with the F7 Moonshine release
version, do I need to: (a) do nothing, let the updater do its job (b)
modify the updater (c) boot from an install disk (d) take some other
action. Thanks!

That depends on what version of the fedora-release package (which contains the
repository information) you have, make sure you have a 7-x version, not a
6.9x-x or 7.9x-x one. If in doubt, manually fetch and install fedora-release
from the F7 tree.
