I didn't mean it bad and yes - the result may lead to less cutting edge packages but on the other hand with predictable schedule, you know the next window is pretty soon (within 6 months). I'm just not convinced (planned) slips are that big deal (unless Phoronix forum complaints makes it a big deal;-). It can put more stress on folks, flexibility has some costs but... And we have that power to define what Fedora should be and I accepted it :).
