I forgot to mention this.  The current release of mercurial drops everything 
to lowercase for http clone/pull methods.  They've fixed this in hg, but 
haven't made a new release yet.  SSH methods are case sensitive, where FC-6 
would work.  Once they've made another release I'll update so that we get 
case sensitivity through http as well.

Its good to know that this issue is fixed. So far I've been using
[collections] in hgweb.config as workarround instead of [paths]. This
preserves the uppercase chars in repository names..
