Yeah, we may have an opportunity to do this better with CentOS Stream.
Starting with RHEL 8, there's no more "next EL isn't announced" -- instead,
they're every three years. So, we know when Fedora ELN is going to flow into
CentOS Stream and from there to RHEL. We could actually position and label
each Fedora Server release by where it fits on the wave of that cadence.

It's too early to say that this hypothetical workflow is a replacement for Fedora. Things still show up in RHEL 8 ahead of CentOS Stream.

A strong Fedora Server edition means a strong RHEL Server.
