I've been trying to work with the packaging folks and the fedup maintainer, but right now it's looking infeasible to do a non-productized (F20) upgrade to a Productized F21. People who want Workstation are going to have to do a clean install. People upgrading from F20 will end up with non-productized F21 (equivalent to a Spin). I need to follow up on the original devel thread about this. Basically, the fedup maintainers don't want to spend effort on a one-time upgrade feature, particularly with so little time before release.
