> (2) Can whatever the correctly-named repo is to be get activated/populated?
Yes.
Thanks.

Shouldn't it be only: openSUSE_42.1
Yes, it should! The repos below got it right. But, we follow the crowd.
This tangent should probably be (also) addressed on a different/broader
ML ...
The whole situation is quite messy, atm -- and, quite familiar.
I've one particularly "Frankenstein'd" machine, running Opensuse "last
release" (13.2 in this case), with lots of update repos added; it
represents a superset of the various repos that are used around here.
At each major release, I run checks on the availability of
next-release's repos. Neither testing, nor certainly upgrades, get much
activity at all until all the target repos are active, populated, and
stable.
Currently, for example, a number of v42.1 repos ARE already populated at
the "follow the crowd"-named baseurls,
baseurl=.../openSUSE_Leap_42.1
These other-named variants exist
Documentation:/Tools/openSUSE_42
Java:/Factory/openSUSE_42.1
LibreOffice:/Factory/openSUSE_42.1
While, still, none of these, nor any v42-name-variant, do not exist at
all yet; note, they're all 'non-home' repos:
network:/chromium/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
editors/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
devel:/gcc/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
KDE:/Unstable:/Applications/KDE_Unstable_Frameworks_openSUSE_Leap_42.1
KDE:/Unstable:/Extra/KDE_Unstable_Frameworks_openSUSE_Leap_42.1
devel:/languages:/lua/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
multimedia:/color_management/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
network:/vpn/openSUSE_Leap_42.1/
isv:/ownCloud:/community/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
security:/logging:/elma:/devel/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
security:/Stunnel/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
shells/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
server:/messaging/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
systemsmanagement:/puppet/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
X11:/common:/Factory/openSUSE_Leap_42.1
It'd be quite helpful to have a sweep of wrong-named & inactive
next-release repos done, with notifications to each maintainer.
Atm, it's file-a-bug-for-each-repo.
Some form of automation, or at least defined/expected process, would be
useful.
