We should certainly try to get the earth shattering changes done as early as possible (i.e. soon after branch) but I recognize that there isn't sufficient developer time available to both stabilize one release and push all of the new stuff through rawhide at the same time.

F15 branched, what, a few weeks ago and isn't due to be out until six months after whenever F14 ends up coming out. I guess I'm just saying that, if we had the developer time to do it, it would be super nice if we could get the "pre-F15 rawhide is useless" bit over and done with by the time F15 branches. But back in reality, I know that's a tough thing to ask for. - J< -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
