A. Official Fedora repositories (Core, Updates, Extras) share the same mentor's like program. (AKA: Package review and sponsor process).
B. Once you go 3rd party (unofficial repos), it's your own ass to fry. (BTW, last time I tried to install freenx on my Etch system [from a 3'rd party repo] I almost ended up with a dead Debian system - Somehow you don't see me blaming deb for my own mistakes.)
