The fedora-list archives are a pretty good source for answering questions like
this.  For example this email:

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2003-November/msg01948.html

and this set of threads:

My yum.conf does include a mirror at freshrpms.net though I don't know that it
includes the kinds of things you are talking about.  There is a lot of
discussion about yum.conf mirror sites if you look in the list archives.
