Although I currently assume the change is safe for stable Fedoras, getting it into future stable releases such as Fedora 25 has a higher priority. Instead of a fixed schedule for updating to F23/F24, here's a more conservative suggestion: We start a new thread on this devel list, and ask all developers who use F23/F24 in a stable environment, to perform the configuration that is equivalent to the suggested package change (which is, to run the "ca-legacy disable" command), and ask them to report any regressions they notice. We could adjust our plans based on the feedback (or lack thereof) we'll get. If everything seems to work fine, in a second step, we could broaden our call for testing, by sending an equivalent message to a fedora users mailing list. > That said, I'm not saying "don't allow this in F25", personally.
