It _was_ probably a surprise to some of us in FESCo. If you look at the NewInstallerUI feature, there's very little indication that there is a plan to stage things across releases - there is only a single mention of F19 related to a feature that is really not that important for the average Fedora user. I suppose what happened here was, that the Anaconda team knew that they want to do a multi-release transition, "it was obvious", so it wasn't really emphasized anywhere - and anyone reading the feature page didn't find anything wrong about it. OTOH FESCo started with the assumption that F18 needs to ship with "the expected functionality", and seeing the feature, "it was obvious" that the Anaconda team was proposing the feature within these constraints. So nobody even noticed the difference basically until the predecessor of the detailed https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Work_List page was created. However, I'm not sure that we can solve this kind of disconnect by a process change. Mirek -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
