With the 4.5 kernel out and the merge window for 4.6 opened up, we had

available as an update once it is ready. Timing wise, 4.6 *should*
release just before the final freeze for F24, but that is cutting it
insanely close. Should Fedora move on as scheduled, and 4.6 have some
delay due to a bug that impacts users, that would be unfortunate.
This means we have a good bit of time to make sure that everything is
working as intended with 4.5 in Fedora. It also means that any
installer critical fixes will need to be backported to 4.5.
Given that 4.6 is out and current F24 final freeze is not scheduled until
2016-05-31 should not F24 be released with the 4.6 kernel?
I think the original logic is still sound. There have been three
delays for Fedora 24 already, in the original schedule today was to be
GA. I don't think it's worth any risk for another slip.
So you prefer not catching potentially any bugs before final GA release
but rather expose them to the end users through 0 day update instead?
