Rehashing the conversation elsewhere, the problem with DIY and similar
is that it doesn't make much sense in the context of Spins, which are
non-productized but not particularly do-it-yourself.

Perhaps we should have just gone with 'fedora-release-nonproduct' like I
originally suggested months ago...

Anyway, I don't really care what we pick, so long as it's decided in the
next 24 hours so we can deal with the Obsoletes hoops and make sure it
gets pushed out and into a test compose.
