While I side with mclasen here and believe that it is a strength of Fedora that we take the liberty to let cycles slip rather then compromise quality, I want to mention one thing: on opensuse the "base" system has a different schedule then the rest of the OS. i.e. the kernel, gcc, glibc and the low-level tools freeze first, while everything else may be hacked on a couple of weeks more. Maybe that's something to adopt for Fedora as well?
