Prior updates seem to have been done like this; Packages and ISO's are synced to mirrors. Maybe packages first, then ISO's. When a sufficient set of mirrors are synced (a large percentage), the yum metadata is synced. I think there are methods in place to check if a mirror is fully up. When this is done, then the release announcement is done. The mirror servers do their thing and assign fully updated mirrors out to the public. That way the faster mirrors aren't overwhelmed with downloads as the slower mirrors are still catching up, and systems don't try to yum update on an incomplete mirror and break. Do everyone a favor and wait another day or so. If you saw ISO's they may not be complete yet, and you will add bandwidth load for nothing. When you see a release announcement, then all bets are off, and everyone will be pounding the mirrors anyway.
