Well, currently the FC3 t3 rpms haven't even been published. The plan
is to add the new format to the existing two.

You are the first to express the need, but I know that FC3 will drop
the old yum support, so in two weeks there will be more ;)

I need to come up with a reasonable scheme to have old and new yum
client support concurrently (one of them need renaming), but I am
waiting for the new yum to stabilize a bit more.
