The change proposal indicates this is a drop-in API replacement project, but will this introduce a new package named 'libmemcached-awesome' and we let libmemcached go out to pasture? Or is this changing the Source0 of the libmemcached package to just use this new upstream? If the former, will the new package provide proper Provides/Conflicts against the existing libmemcached package or are there plans to allow both to be installed at the same time?
