I'm not sure how useful it will be to report the F13 updates at this point.

Basically this is part of the no frozen rawhide setup. F13 has branched off and stabalization
work is being done. The existing updates system is being used to vet updates for it. Things that
work/are stable/get enough acks will be promoted to the base F13 repo, so when it's released
they will be already in the base repo, not updates.

I suppose it might be useful to note them on the side, but these are all things that will be in F13
when it's released.
