And the move to F18 does mean a big

Is there something wrong with the current Anaconda?

In  relation to Fedora 17, no.
But dracut has introduced big changes for F18,
and Anaconda has to be re-written to suit this change(s)

Then why wasn't the new dracut pushed to fc19?

This feels like politics, someone wants to have new dracut before other distributions do, or what? Does it have a thread that can pee holy water? Will my servers run 20% more load? What justifies forcing this in when other things users can actually use are delayed as not ready?

My idea of leading edge is a release with the current *working* version at the time of release. To delay the release for one package which frankly is unlikely to matter to most users is to invite a very visible number of packages now being one revision behind. Are there resources to unfreeze all the other packages and bring them up to date?

As the old commercial used to ask, "Where's the beef?"
