The Fedora Rawhide mirrors appear to have had no updates of Rawhide since 2016-03-31. Given I am normally used to 200MB+ per day to have gone 5 days with no updates is bordering on the traumatic! :-)
Is this a normal state of affairs or is there a problem and I just missed the memo?

The updates are flowing, it depends a bit on the arch, we had a network issue which stopped secondary arches (aarch64/Power64/s390) from flowing, that was fixed yesterday and they're on their way out today, but it didn't affect primary arches. I'm not aware of other issues.

there's a problem, I'm not sure anyone sent a memo, though.
basically, new packages go out to the repos as part of the regular 'composes'. If the compose fails, the repos don't get new packages. Rawhide composes have been failing for the last several days because releng have been trying to enable compose of the Atomic trees and images and it hasn't been working.
I'm pretty sure I saw on IRC today that they've disabled the Atomic bits again to try and get a compose through, so hopefully we'll get one soon.

Not a problem per se, it is just that this is the first time I have had more than 2 days without updates.

Splendid.
Whilst on the topic of updates has the DRPM system been terminated. Since the F24 → F25 shift and the rearrangement of the repository filestore to the Workstation/Server/Everything/… structure, there appears to be no DRPMs. Given this can reduce 250MB downloads to 30MB (OK that is on a good day :-) this can be very important when I am out and about and using mobile Internet.
