If the users have not modified the
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-testing.repo manually, then the file
is automatically disabled for them when the GA fedora-repos package
gets to their system. It doesn't downgrade any packages they have
installed from u-t, though. So early adopters *may* want to `dnf
distro-sync` at this point, but in most cases that isn't necessary. It
probably wouldn't hurt to add "At some point during this Freeze, an
update to `fedora-release` and `fedora-repos` will be pushed out,
disabling updates-testing by default and identifying the system as a
GA release" to the Final Freeze announcement.
