Not necessarily.  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.

MM> It's hard to test a moving target.

Well, you test what you have at the time.  That may not be what you
could test tomorrow, but the testing is still equally valid.

Well, don't forget that since we aren't freezing rawhide, we essentially
have that long now.  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.
