[users] Using RPMForge with FC8

I'm having great difficulty working out what to do to use RPMForge with my
new FC8 install. I've spent ages going through documentation for RPMForge
and various online fora, but I only find mention of FC up to FC4. (Which
I've just upgraded from). I found an email on this list last month that
comments on information about how to use RPMForge being "difficult to come
by", and that installing a FC4 binary package is the way to add the repo. Is
this correct?

I started with a live CD install of FC8 after the standard DVD install
didn't work. I've installed Planet CCRMA over the top as I wish to fiddle
with "musical stuff", but want to add more multimedia (kino, dvdstyler,
cinelerra) over that again. RPMForge appears to be the repo of choice,
particularly since apparently Planet CCRMA is working towards merging with
RPMForge.

But the info on RPMForge with Fedora core distros later than 4 is really
hard to come by.

Cheers,

Ross-c
