>From the project atomic side, we're looking to promote both the Fedora
and CentOS versions for different things.  That said, there are many
masters to worry about here.  Fedora in particular will have their
rawhide and stable releases promoted differently on the Fedora sites and
the project atomic page will likely promote things a little differently
and that is probably Ok as long as everyone ultimately has a choice to
download whatever they want.  I think the promotion part is largely just
a way to direct people who otherwise don't know how to make an informed
decision.

On the Project Atomic side I'm mostly concerned with the emerging tech.
Getting new features in front of people as soon as possible.  In the
short term, Fedora rawhide really is the only place to do that.  Longer term
though there is a desire to base the Atomic dependent packages (docker,
kubernetes, etcd, ostree, etc.) on something more stable.

Once Adam starts and once the tool chain matures we can always make changes.
