Matt Domsch wrote a whole set of infrastructure tools for Fedora to
push out updates to mirrors. I think it is what causes the
fedora-enchilada to show up on various mirrors these days.

I can see the one downside to the system is:

Fedora Account System

    * You must have an account in the Fedora Account System. (More
info also at Infrastructure/AccountSystem.) You are not required to
sign the Contributors License Agreement to merely mirror Fedora
content, but you must do so if you wish to contribute to other aspects
of Fedora.
