We are moving forward with step four.  The DNS record for
dmirr.iuscommunity.org now points to mirrors.iuscommunity.org.  Please let us

We are moving forward with step three.  The new ius-release RPM will move to
the stable repos during tonight's automation run.  Please let us know if you see
any issues.
